/AWS1/IF_CEX=>GETCOSTCATEGORIES()

About GetCostCategories

Retrieves an array of cost category names and values incurred cost.

If some cost category names and values are not associated with any cost, they will not be returned by this API.

IMPORTING

Required arguments:

io_timeperiod TYPE REF TO /AWS1/CL_CEXDATEINTERVAL /AWS1/CL_CEXDATEINTERVAL

The time period of the request.

Optional arguments:

iv_searchstring TYPE /AWS1/CEXSEARCHSTRING /AWS1/CEXSEARCHSTRING

The value that you want to search the filter values for.

If you don't specify a CostCategoryName, SearchString is used to filter cost category names that match the SearchString pattern. If you specify a CostCategoryName, SearchString is used to filter cost category values that match the SearchString pattern.

iv_costcategoryname TYPE /AWS1/CEXCOSTCATEGORYNAME /AWS1/CEXCOSTCATEGORYNAME

The unique name of the cost category.

io_filter TYPE REF TO /AWS1/CL_CEXEXPRESSION /AWS1/CL_CEXEXPRESSION

Use Expression to filter in various Cost Explorer APIs.

Not all Expression types are supported in each API. Refer to the documentation for each specific API to see what is supported.

There are two patterns:

  • Simple dimension values.

    • There are three types of simple dimension values: CostCategories, Tags, and Dimensions.

      • Specify the CostCategories field to define a filter that acts on Cost Categories.

      • Specify the Tags field to define a filter that acts on Cost Allocation Tags.

      • Specify the Dimensions field to define a filter that acts on the DimensionValues .

    • For each filter type, you can set the dimension name and values for the filters that you plan to use.

      • For example, you can filter for REGION==us-east-1 OR REGION==us-west-1. For GetRightsizingRecommendation, the Region is a full name (for example, REGION==US East (N. Virginia).

      • The corresponding Expression for this example is as follows: { "Dimensions": { "Key": "REGION", "Values": [ "us-east-1", "us-west-1" ] } }

      • As shown in the previous example, lists of dimension values are combined with OR when applying the filter.

    • You can also set different match options to further control how the filter behaves. Not all APIs support match options. Refer to the documentation for each specific API to see what is supported.

      • For example, you can filter for linked account names that start with "a".

      • The corresponding Expression for this example is as follows: { "Dimensions": { "Key": "LINKED_ACCOUNT_NAME", "MatchOptions": [ "STARTS_WITH" ], "Values": [ "a" ] } }

  • Compound Expression types with logical operations.

    • You can use multiple Expression types and the logical operators AND/OR/NOT to create a list of one or more Expression objects. By doing this, you can filter by more advanced options.

    • For example, you can filter by ((REGION == us-east-1 OR REGION == us-west-1) OR (TAG.Type == Type1)) AND (USAGE_TYPE != DataTransfer).

    • The corresponding Expression for this example is as follows: { "And": [ {"Or": [ {"Dimensions": { "Key": "REGION", "Values": [ "us-east-1", "us-west-1" ] }}, {"Tags": { "Key": "TagName", "Values": ["Value1"] } } ]}, {"Not": {"Dimensions": { "Key": "USAGE_TYPE", "Values": ["DataTransfer"] }}} ] }

    Because each Expression can have only one operator, the service returns an error if more than one is specified. The following example shows an Expression object that creates an error: { "And": [ ... ], "Dimensions": { "Key": "USAGE_TYPE", "Values": [ "DataTransfer" ] } }

    The following is an example of the corresponding error message: "Expression has more than one roots. Only one root operator is allowed for each expression: And, Or, Not, Dimensions, Tags, CostCategories"

For the GetRightsizingRecommendation action, a combination of OR and NOT isn't supported. OR isn't supported between different dimensions, or dimensions and tags. NOT operators aren't supported. Dimensions are also limited to LINKED_ACCOUNT, REGION, or RIGHTSIZING_TYPE.

For the GetReservationPurchaseRecommendation action, only NOT is supported. AND and OR aren't supported. Dimensions are limited to LINKED_ACCOUNT.

it_sortby TYPE /AWS1/CL_CEXSORTDEFINITION=>TT_SORTDEFINITIONS TT_SORTDEFINITIONS

The value that you sort the data by.

The key represents the cost and usage metrics. The following values are supported:

  • BlendedCost

  • UnblendedCost

  • AmortizedCost

  • NetAmortizedCost

  • NetUnblendedCost

  • UsageQuantity

  • NormalizedUsageAmount

The supported key values for the SortOrder value are ASCENDING and DESCENDING.

When you use the SortBy value, the NextPageToken and SearchString key values aren't supported.

iv_billingviewarn TYPE /AWS1/CEXBILLINGVIEWARN /AWS1/CEXBILLINGVIEWARN

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) that uniquely identifies a specific billing view. The ARN is used to specify which particular billing view you want to interact with or retrieve information from when making API calls related to Amazon Web Services Billing and Cost Management features. The BillingViewArn can be retrieved by calling the ListBillingViews API.

iv_maxresults TYPE /AWS1/CEXMAXRESULTS /AWS1/CEXMAXRESULTS

This field is only used when the SortBy value is provided in the request.

The maximum number of objects that are returned for this request. If MaxResults isn't specified with the SortBy value, the request returns 1000 results as the default value for this parameter.

For GetCostCategories, MaxResults has an upper quota of 1000.

iv_nextpagetoken TYPE /AWS1/CEXNEXTPAGETOKEN /AWS1/CEXNEXTPAGETOKEN

If the number of objects that are still available for retrieval exceeds the quota, Amazon Web Services returns a NextPageToken value in the response. To retrieve the next batch of objects, provide the NextPageToken from the previous call in your next request.

Syntax Example

This is an example of the syntax for calling the method. It includes every possible argument and initializes every possible value. The data provided is not necessarily semantically accurate (for example the value "string" may be provided for something that is intended to be an instance ID, or in some cases two arguments may be mutually exclusive). The syntax shows the ABAP syntax for creating the various data structures.
