SDK
For the current release of Organizations, specify the us-east-1
region
for all Amazon Web Services API and CLI calls made from the commercial Amazon
Web Services Regions outside of
China. If calling from one of the Amazon Web Services Regions in China, then
specify
cn-northwest-1
. You can do this in the CLI by using these parameters
and commands:
* Use the following parameter with each command to specify both the endpoint and its region:
--endpoint-url https://organizations.us-east-1.amazonaws.com
(from commercial Amazon Web Services Regions outside of China)
or
--endpoint-url
https://organizations.cn-northwest-1.amazonaws.com.cn
(from Amazon Web Services Regions in China)
* Use the default endpoint, but configure your default region with this command:
aws configure set default.region us-east-1
(from commercial Amazon Web Services Regions outside of China)
or
aws configure set default.region cn-northwest-1
(from Amazon Web Services Regions in China)
* Use the following parameter with each command to specify the endpoint:
--region us-east-1
(from commercial Amazon Web Services Regions outside of China)
or
--region cn-northwest-1
(from Amazon Web Services Regions in China)
recording-api-requests
Recording API Requests
Organizations supports CloudTrail, a service that records Amazon Web Services API calls for your Amazon Web Services account and delivers log files to an Amazon S3 bucket. By using information collected by CloudTrail, you can determine which requests the Organizations service received, who made the request and when, and so on. For more about Organizations and its support for CloudTrail, see Logging Organizations API calls with CloudTrail in the Organizations User Guide. To learn more about CloudTrail, including how to turn it on and find your log files, see the CloudTrail User Guide.

Sends a response to the originator of a handshake agreeing to the action proposed by the handshake request.
You can only call this operation by the following principals when they also have the relevant IAM permissions:
*
Invitation to join or Approve all features request handshakes: only a principal from the member account.
The user who calls the API for an invitation to join must have the
organizations:AcceptHandshake
permission. If you enabled all
features in the organization, the user must also have the
iam:CreateServiceLinkedRole
permission so that Organizations can
create the required service-linked role named AWSServiceRoleForOrganizations
.
For
more information, see Organizations and service-linked roles
in the
Organizations User Guide.
*
enable-all-features-final-confirmation
Enable all features final confirmation
handshake: only a principal from the management account.
For more information about invitations, see Inviting an Amazon Web Services account to join your organization in the Organizations User Guide. For more information about requests to enable all features in the organization, see Enabling all features in your organization in the Organizations User Guide.
After you accept a handshake, it continues to appear in the results of relevant APIs for only 30 days. After that, it's deleted.
Attaches a policy to a root, an organizational unit (OU), or an individual account.
How the policy affects accounts depends on the type of policy. Refer to the Organizations User Guide for information about each policy type:

This operation can be called only from the organization's management account or by a member account that is a delegated administrator for an Amazon Web Services service.
Cancels a handshake.
Canceling a handshake sets the handshake state to
CANCELED
.
This operation can be called only from the account that originated the
handshake. The recipient of the handshake can't cancel it, but can use
DeclineHandshake
instead. After a handshake is canceled, the recipient
can no longer respond to that handshake.
After you cancel a handshake, it continues to appear in the results of relevant APIs for only 30 days. After that, it's deleted.
Closes an Amazon Web Services member account within an organization.
You can close an account when
all features are enabled
.
You can't close the management account with this API.
This is an asynchronous request that Amazon Web Services performs in the
background. Because
CloseAccount
operates asynchronously, it can return a successful
completion message even though account closure might still be in progress. You
need to
wait a few minutes before the account is fully closed. To check the status of
the
request, do one of the following:
*
Use the AccountId
that you sent in the CloseAccount
request to provide as a parameter to the DescribeAccount
operation.
While the close account request is in progress, Account status will indicate PENDING_CLOSURE. When the close account request completes, the status will change to SUSPENDED.
Check the CloudTrail log for the CloseAccountResult
event that gets
published after the account closes successfully. For information on using
CloudTrail
with Organizations, see Logging and monitoring in Organizations
in the
Organizations User Guide*.
You can close only 10% of member accounts, between 10 and 1000, within a rolling 30 day period. This quota is not bound by a calendar month, but starts when you close an account. After you reach this limit, you can't close additional accounts. For more information, see Closing a member account in your organization and Quotas for Organizations in the Organizations User Guide.
To reinstate a closed account, contact Amazon Web Services Support within the 90-day grace period while the account is in SUSPENDED status.
If the Amazon Web Services account you attempt to close is linked to an Amazon
Web Services GovCloud
(US) account, the CloseAccount
request will close both
accounts. To learn important pre-closure details, see
Closing an Amazon Web Services GovCloud (US)
account
in the
Amazon Web Services GovCloud User Guide.
Creates an Amazon Web Services account that is automatically a member of the organization whose credentials made the request.
This is an asynchronous request that Amazon Web Services performs in the
background. Because CreateAccount
operates asynchronously, it can return a
successful completion message even though account initialization might still be
in
progress. You might need to wait a few minutes before you can successfully
access the
account. To check the status of the request, do one of the following:
*
Use the Id
value of the CreateAccountStatus
response
element from this operation to provide as a parameter to the
DescribeCreateAccountStatus
operation.
Check the CloudTrail log for the CreateAccountResult
event. For
information on using CloudTrail with Organizations, see Logging and monitoring in
Organizations
in the
Organizations User Guide*.
The user who calls the API to create an account must have the
organizations:CreateAccount
permission. If you enabled all features in
the organization, Organizations creates the required service-linked role named
AWSServiceRoleForOrganizations
. For more information, see Organizations and service-linked
roles
in the
Organizations User Guide.
If the request includes tags, then the requester must have the
organizations:TagResource
permission.
Organizations preconfigures the new member account with a role (named
OrganizationAccountAccessRole
by default) that grants users in the
management account administrator permissions in the new member account.
Principals in
the management account can assume the role. Organizations clones the company
name and address
information for the new account from the organization's management account.
This operation can be called only from the organization's management account.
For more information about creating accounts, see Creating a member account in your organization in the Organizations User Guide.
When you create an account in an organization using the Organizations console, API, or CLI commands, the information required for the account to operate as a standalone account, such as a payment method is not automatically collected. If you must remove an account from your organization later, you can do so only after you provide the missing information. For more information, see Considerations before removing an account from an organization in the Organizations User Guide.
If you get an exception that indicates that you exceeded your account limits for the organization, contact Amazon Web Services Support.
If you get an exception that indicates that the operation failed because your organization is still initializing, wait one hour and then try again. If the error persists, contact Amazon Web Services Support.
It isn't recommended to use CreateAccount
to create multiple temporary
accounts, and using
the CreateAccount
API to close accounts is subject to a 30-day usage quota.
For information on the requirements
and process for closing an account, see Closing a member account in your
organization
in the
Organizations User Guide.
When you create a member account with this operation, you can choose whether to create the account with the IAM User and Role Access to Billing Information switch enabled. If you enable it, IAM users and roles that have appropriate permissions can view billing information for the account. If you disable it, only the account root user can access billing information. For information about how to disable this switch for an account, see Granting access to your billing information and tools.
This action is available if all of the following are true:
* You're authorized to create accounts in the Amazon Web Services GovCloud (US) Region.
For more information on the Amazon Web Services GovCloud (US) Region, see the Amazon Web Services GovCloud User Guide.
* You already have an account in the Amazon Web Services GovCloud (US) Region that is paired with a management account of an organization in the commercial Region.
* You call this action from the management account of your organization in the commercial Region.
*
You have the organizations:CreateGovCloudAccount
permission.
Organizations automatically creates the required service-linked role named
AWSServiceRoleForOrganizations
. For more information, see Organizations and service-linked
roles
in the
Organizations User Guide.
Amazon Web Services automatically enables CloudTrail for Amazon Web Services GovCloud (US) accounts, but you should also do the following:
* Verify that CloudTrail is enabled to store logs.
* Create an Amazon S3 bucket for CloudTrail log storage.
For more information, see Verifying CloudTrail Is Enabled in the Amazon Web Services GovCloud User Guide.
If the request includes tags, then the requester must have the
organizations:TagResource
permission. The tags are attached to the
commercial account associated with the GovCloud account, rather than the
GovCloud
account itself. To add tags to the GovCloud account, call the TagResource
operation in the GovCloud Region after the new GovCloud
account exists.
You call this action from the management account of your organization in the commercial Region to create a standalone Amazon Web Services account in the Amazon Web Services GovCloud (US) Region. After the account is created, the management account of an organization in the Amazon Web Services GovCloud (US) Region can invite it to that organization. For more information on inviting standalone accounts in the Amazon Web Services GovCloud (US) to join an organization, see Organizations in the Amazon Web Services GovCloud User Guide.
Calling CreateGovCloudAccount
is an asynchronous request that Amazon Web
Services
performs in the background. Because CreateGovCloudAccount
operates
asynchronously, it can return a successful completion message even though
account
initialization might still be in progress. You might need to wait a few minutes
before
you can successfully access the account. To check the status of the request, do
one of
the following:
*
Use the OperationId
response element from this operation to
provide as a parameter to the DescribeCreateAccountStatus
operation.
Check the CloudTrail log for the CreateAccountResult
event. For
information on using CloudTrail with Organizations, see Logging and
monitoring in
Organizations
in the
Organizations User Guide*.
When you call the CreateGovCloudAccount
action, you create two accounts:
a standalone account in the Amazon Web Services GovCloud (US) Region and an
associated account in the
commercial Region for billing and support purposes. The account in the
commercial Region
is automatically a member of the organization whose credentials made the
request. Both
accounts are associated with the same email address.
A role is created in the new account in the commercial Region that allows the management account in the organization in the commercial Region to assume it. An Amazon Web Services GovCloud (US) account is then created and associated with the commercial account that you just created. A role is also created in the new Amazon Web Services GovCloud (US) account that can be assumed by the Amazon Web Services GovCloud (US) account that is associated with the management account of the commercial organization. For more information and to view a diagram that explains how account access works, see Organizations in the Amazon Web Services GovCloud User Guide.
For more information about creating accounts, see Creating a member account in your organization in the Organizations User Guide.
When you create an account in an organization using the Organizations console, API, or CLI commands, the information required for the account to operate as a standalone account is not automatically collected. This includes a payment method and signing the end user license agreement (EULA). If you must remove an account from your organization later, you can do so only after you provide the missing information. For more information, see Considerations before removing an account from an organization in the Organizations User Guide.
If you get an exception that indicates that you exceeded your account limits for the organization, contact Amazon Web Services Support.
If you get an exception that indicates that the operation failed because your organization is still initializing, wait one hour and then try again. If the error persists, contact Amazon Web Services Support.
Using CreateGovCloudAccount
to create multiple temporary
accounts isn't recommended. You can only close an account from the Amazon Web
Services
Billing and Cost Management console, and you must be signed in as the root user.
For information on
the requirements and process for closing an account, see Closing a member account in your
organization
in the
Organizations User Guide.
When you create a member account with this operation, you can choose whether to create the account with the IAM User and Role Access to Billing Information switch enabled. If you enable it, IAM users and roles that have appropriate permissions can view billing information for the account. If you disable it, only the account root user can access billing information. For information about how to disable this switch for an account, see Granting access to your billing information and tools.
Creates an Amazon Web Services organization.
The account whose user is calling the
CreateOrganization
operation automatically becomes the management account
of the new organization.
This operation must be called using credentials from the account that is to become the new organization's management account. The principal must also have the relevant IAM permissions.
By default (or if you set the FeatureSet
parameter to ALL
),
the new organization is created with all features enabled and service control
policies
automatically enabled in the root. If you instead choose to create the
organization
supporting only the consolidated billing features by setting the FeatureSet
parameter to CONSOLIDATED_BILLING
, no policy types are enabled by default
and you can't use organization policies.
Creates an organizational unit (OU) within a root or parent OU.
An OU is a container for accounts that enables you to organize your accounts to apply policies according to your business requirements. The number of levels deep that you can nest OUs is dependent upon the policy types enabled for that root. For service control policies, the limit is five.
For more information about OUs, see Managing organizational units (OUs) in the Organizations User Guide.
If the request includes tags, then the requester must have the
organizations:TagResource
permission.
This operation can be called only from the organization's management account.
Creates a policy of a specified type that you can attach to a root, an organizational unit (OU), or an individual Amazon Web Services account.
For more information about policies and their use, see Managing Organizations policies.
If the request includes tags, then the requester must have the
organizations:TagResource
permission.
This operation can be called only from the organization's management account or by a member account that is a delegated administrator for an Amazon Web Services service.
Declines a handshake request.
This sets the handshake state to DECLINED
and effectively deactivates the request.
This operation can be called only from the account that received the handshake.
The originator of the handshake can use CancelHandshake
instead. The originator can't reactivate a declined request, but can reinitiate
the
process with a new handshake request.
After you decline a handshake, it continues to appear in the results of relevant APIs for only 30 days. After that, it's deleted.
Deletes the organization.
You can delete an organization only by using credentials from the management account. The organization must be empty of member accounts.
Deletes an organizational unit (OU) from a root or another OU.
You must first remove all accounts and child OUs from the OU that you want to delete.
This operation can be called only from the organization's management account.
Deletes the specified policy from your organization.
Before you perform this operation, you must first detach the policy from all organizational units (OUs), roots, and accounts.
This operation can be called only from the organization's management account or by a member account that is a delegated administrator for an Amazon Web Services service.
Deletes the resource policy from your organization.
You can only call this operation from the organization's management account.
Removes the specified member Amazon Web Services account as a delegated administrator for the specified Amazon Web Services service.
Deregistering a delegated administrator can have unintended impacts on the functionality of the enabled Amazon Web Services service. See the documentation for the enabled service before you deregister a delegated administrator so that you understand any potential impacts.
You can run this action only for Amazon Web Services services that support this feature. For a current list of services that support it, see the column Supports Delegated Administrator in the table at Amazon Web Services Services that you can use with Organizations in the Organizations User Guide.
This operation can be called only from the organization's management account.
Retrieves Organizations-related information about the specified account.
This operation can be called only from the organization's management account or by a member account that is a delegated administrator for an Amazon Web Services service.
Retrieves the current status of an asynchronous request to create an account.
This operation can be called only from the organization's management account or by a member account that is a delegated administrator for an Amazon Web Services service.
Returns the contents of the effective policy for specified policy type and account.
The effective policy is the aggregation of any policies of the specified type that the account inherits, plus any policy of that type that is directly attached to the account.
This operation applies only to management policies. It does not apply to authorization policies: service control policies (SCPs) and resource control policies (RCPs).
For more information about policy inheritance, see Understanding management policy inheritance in the Organizations User Guide.
This operation can be called from any account in the organization.
Retrieves information about a previously requested handshake.
The handshake ID comes
from the response to the original InviteAccountToOrganization
operation that generated the handshake.
You can access handshakes that are ACCEPTED
, DECLINED
, or
CANCELED
for only 30 days after they change to that state. They're then
deleted and no longer accessible.
This operation can be called from any account in the organization.
Retrieves information about the organization that the user's account belongs to.
This operation can be called from any account in the organization.
Even if a policy type is shown as available in the organization, you can disable
it separately at the root level with DisablePolicyType
. Use ListRoots
to see
the status of policy types for a specified
root.
Retrieves information about an organizational unit (OU).
This operation can be called only from the organization's management account or by a member account that is a delegated administrator for an Amazon Web Services service.
Retrieves information about a policy.
This operation can be called only from the organization's management account or by a member account that is a delegated administrator for an Amazon Web Services service.
Retrieves information about a resource policy.
This operation can be called only from the organization's management account or by a member account that is a delegated administrator for an Amazon Web Services service.
Detaches a policy from a target root, organizational unit (OU), or account.
If the policy being detached is a service control policy (SCP), the changes to permissions for Identity and Access Management (IAM) users and roles in affected accounts are immediate.
Every root, OU, and account must have at least one SCP attached. If you want to
replace the default FullAWSAccess
policy with an SCP that limits the
permissions that can be delegated, you must attach the replacement SCP before
you can
remove the default SCP. This is the authorization strategy of an "allow list".
If you instead attach a second SCP and
leave the FullAWSAccess
SCP still attached, and specify
"Effect":
"Deny"
in the second SCP to override the "Effect": "Allow"
in
the FullAWSAccess
policy (or any other attached SCP), you're using the
authorization strategy of a "deny list".
This operation can be called only from the organization's management account or by a member account that is a delegated administrator for an Amazon Web Services service.
Disables the integration of an Amazon Web Services service (the service that is
specified by
ServicePrincipal
) with Organizations.
When you disable integration, the specified service no longer can create a service-linked role in new accounts in your organization. This means the service can't perform operations on your behalf on any new accounts in your organization. The service can still perform operations in older accounts until the service completes its clean-up from Organizations.
We strongly recommend that you don't use this command to disable integration between Organizations and the specified Amazon Web Services service. Instead, use the console or commands that are provided by the specified service. This lets the trusted service perform any required initialization when enabling trusted access, such as creating any required resources and any required clean up of resources when disabling trusted access.
For information about how to disable trusted service access to your organization using the trusted service, see the Learn more link under the Supports Trusted Access column at Amazon Web Services services that you can use with Organizations. on this page.
If you disable access by using this command, it causes the following actions to occur:
The service can no longer create a service-linked role in the accounts in your organization. This means that the service can't perform operations on your behalf on any new accounts in your organization. The service can still perform operations in older accounts until the service completes its clean-up from Organizations.
The service can no longer perform tasks in the member accounts in the organization, unless those operations are explicitly permitted by the IAM policies that are attached to your roles. This includes any data aggregation from the member accounts to the management account, or to a delegated administrator account, where relevant.
Some services detect this and clean up any remaining data or resources related to the integration, while other services stop accessing the organization but leave any historical data and configuration in place to support a possible re-enabling of the integration.
Using the other service's console or commands to disable the integration ensures that the other service is aware that it can clean up any resources that are required only for the integration. How the service cleans up its resources in the organization's accounts depends on that service. For more information, see the documentation for the other Amazon Web Services service.
After you perform the DisableAWSServiceAccess
operation, the specified
service can no longer perform operations in your organization's accounts
For more information about integrating other services with Organizations, including the list of services that work with Organizations, see Using Organizations with other Amazon Web Services services in the Organizations User Guide.
This operation can be called only from the organization's management account.
Disables an organizational policy type in a root.
A policy of a certain type can be
attached to entities in a root only if that type is enabled in the root. After
you
perform this operation, you no longer can attach policies of the specified type
to that
root or to any organizational unit (OU) or account in that root. You can undo
this by
using the EnablePolicyType
operation.
This is an asynchronous request that Amazon Web Services performs in the
background. If you disable
a policy type for a root, it still appears enabled for the organization if all features
are enabled for the organization. Amazon Web Services recommends that you
first use ListRoots
to see the status of policy types for a specified
root, and then use this operation.
This operation can be called only from the organization's management account or by a member account that is a delegated administrator for an Amazon Web Services service.
To view the status of available policy types in the organization, use
DescribeOrganization
.
Enables all features in an organization.
This enables the use of organization policies that can restrict the services and actions that can be called in each account. Until you enable all features, you have access only to consolidated billing, and you can't use any of the advanced account administration features that Organizations supports. For more information, see Enabling all features in your organization in the Organizations User Guide.
This operation is required only for organizations that were created explicitly with only the consolidated billing features enabled. Calling this operation sends a handshake to every invited account in the organization. The feature set change can be finalized and the additional features enabled only after all administrators in the invited accounts approve the change by accepting the handshake.
After you enable all features, you can separately enable or disable individual
policy
types in a root using EnablePolicyType
and DisablePolicyType
. To see the
status of policy types in a root, use
ListRoots
.
After all invited member accounts accept the handshake, you finalize the feature set change by accepting the handshake that contains
"Action":
"ENABLE_ALL_FEATURES"
. This completes the change.
After you enable all features in your organization, the management account in the organization can apply policies on all member accounts. These policies can restrict what users and even administrators in those accounts can do. The management account can apply policies that prevent accounts from leaving the organization. Ensure that your account administrators are aware of this.
This operation can be called only from the organization's management account.
Provides an Amazon Web Services service (the service that is specified by
ServicePrincipal
) with permissions to view the structure of an organization,
create a service-linked role
in all the accounts in the organization,
and allow the service to perform operations
on behalf of the organization and its accounts.
Establishing these permissions can be a first step in enabling the integration of an Amazon Web Services service with Organizations.
We recommend that you enable integration between Organizations and the specified Amazon Web Services service by using the console or commands that are provided by the specified service. Doing so ensures that the service is aware that it can create the resources that are required for the integration. How the service creates those resources in the organization's accounts depends on that service. For more information, see the documentation for the other Amazon Web Services service.
For more information about enabling services to integrate with Organizations, see Using Organizations with other Amazon Web Services services in the Organizations User Guide.
You can only call this operation from the organization's management account and only if the organization has enabled all features.
Enables a policy type in a root.
After you enable a policy type in a root, you can
attach policies of that type to the root, any organizational unit (OU), or
account in
that root. You can undo this by using the DisablePolicyType
operation.
This is an asynchronous request that Amazon Web Services performs in the
background. Amazon Web Services
recommends that you first use ListRoots
to see the status of policy
types for a specified root, and then use this operation.
This operation can be called only from the organization's management account or by a member account that is a delegated administrator for an Amazon Web Services service.
You can enable a policy type in a root only if that policy type is available in
the
organization. To view the status of available policy types in the organization,
use
DescribeOrganization
.
Sends an invitation to another account to join your organization as a member account.
Organizations sends email on your behalf to the email address that is associated
with the
other account's owner. The invitation is implemented as a Handshake
whose details are in the response.
You can invite Amazon Web Services accounts only from the same seller as the management account. For example, if your organization's management account was created by Amazon Internet Services Pvt. Ltd (AISPL), an Amazon Web Services seller in India, you can invite only other AISPL accounts to your organization. You can't combine accounts from AISPL and Amazon Web Services or from any other Amazon Web Services seller. For more information, see Consolidated billing in India.
If you receive an exception that indicates that you exceeded your account limits for the organization or that the operation failed because your organization is still initializing, wait one hour and then try again. If the error persists after an hour, contact Amazon Web Services Support.
If the request includes tags, then the requester must have the
organizations:TagResource
permission.
This operation can be called only from the organization's management account.
Removes a member account from its parent organization.
This version of the operation
is performed by the account that wants to leave. To remove a member account as a
user in
the management account, use RemoveAccountFromOrganization
instead.
This operation can be called only from a member account in the organization.
The management account in an organization with all features enabled can
set service control policies (SCPs) that can restrict what administrators of
member accounts can do. This includes preventing them from successfully
calling LeaveOrganization
and leaving the organization.
You can leave an organization as a member account only if the account is configured with the information required to operate as a standalone account. When you create an account in an organization using the Organizations console, API, or CLI commands, the information required of standalone accounts is not automatically collected. For each account that you want to make standalone, you must perform the following steps. If any of the steps are already completed for this account, that step doesn't appear.

Amazon Web Services uses the payment method to charge for any billable (not free tier) Amazon Web Services activity that occurs while the account isn't attached to an organization. For more information, see Considerations before removing an account from an organization in the Organizations User Guide.
The account that you want to leave must not be a delegated administrator account for any Amazon Web Services service enabled for your organization. If the account is a delegated administrator, you must first change the delegated administrator account to another account that is remaining in the organization.
You can leave an organization only after you enable IAM user access to billing in your account. For more information, see About IAM access to the Billing and Cost Management console in the Amazon Web Services Billing and Cost Management User Guide.
After the account leaves the organization, all tags that were attached to the account object in the organization are deleted. Amazon Web Services accounts outside of an organization do not support tags.
A newly created account has a waiting period before it can be removed from its organization. You must wait until at least seven days after the account was created. Invited accounts aren't subject to this waiting period.
