Use the following APIs or AWS CLI commands to check the existing configuration status of EKS Runtime Monitoring. 

**To check existing EKS Runtime Monitoring configuration status in your account**
+ Run [GetDetector](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/guardduty/latest/APIReference/API_GetDetector.html) to check the configuration status of your own account.
+ Alternatively, you can run the following command by using AWS CLI:

  ```
  aws guardduty get-detector --detector-id 12abc34d567e8fa901bc2d34e56789f0 --region us-east-1
  ```

  Make sure to replace the detector ID of your AWS account and the current Region. To find the `detectorId` for your account and current Region, see the **Settings** page in the [https://console.aws.amazon.com/guardduty/](https://console.aws.amazon.com/guardduty/) console, or run the [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/guardduty/latest/APIReference/API_ListDetectors.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/guardduty/latest/APIReference/API_ListDetectors.html) API.

  ```
  aws guardduty describe-organization-configuration --detector-id 12abc34d567e8fa901bc2d34e56789f0 --region us-east-1
  ```
