* Amazon Web Services Products: Amazon Web Services offers many products and services that provide scalable, reliable, and cost-effective infrastructure solutions. For the latest list of Amazon Web Services products, see Amazon Web Services products.
* Amazon Web Services Marketplace private offer: Allows Amazon Web Services Marketplace sellers to extend custom pricing and terms to individual Amazon Web Services customers. Sellers can negotiate custom prices, payment schedules, and end user license terms through private offers, enabling Amazon Web Services customers to acquire software solutions tailored to their specific needs. For more information, see Private offers in Amazon Web Services Marketplace.
To obtain identifiers for these entities, use the following methods:
*
Solution: Use the ListSolutions
operation.
* AWS Products: For the latest list of Amazon Web Services products, see Amazon Web Services products.

disassociate the one to be removed, especially if it's the last remaining entity
that's
required.

This feature is available to partners from Partner Central using the
ListOpportunities
API action.
To synchronize your system with Amazon Web Services, only list the opportunities
that
were newly created or updated. We recommend you rely on events emitted by the
service
into your Amazon Web Services account’s Amazon EventBridge default event bus,
you can
also use the ListOpportunities
action.
We recommend the following approach:
1.
Find the latest LastModifiedDate
that you stored, and only use
the values that came from Amazon Web Services. Don’t use values generated by
your
system.
2.
When you send a ListOpportunities
request, submit the date in ISO
8601 format in the AfterLastModifiedDate
filter.
3.
Amazon Web Services only returns opportunities created or updated on or after
that date and time. Use NextToken
to iterate over all pages.
Lists resource snapshot jobs owned by the customer.
This operation supports various filtering scenarios, including listing all jobs owned by the caller, jobs for a specific engagement, jobs with a specific status, or any combination of these filters.
Retrieves a list of resource view snapshots based on specified criteria.

start_engagement_by_accepting_invitation_task(client, input, options \\ [])
View SourceThis action starts the engagement by accepting an EngagementInvitation
.
The task is asynchronous and involves the following steps: accepting the
invitation,
creating an opportunity in the partner’s account from the AWS opportunity, and
copying
details for tracking. When completed, an Opportunity Created
event is
generated, indicating that the opportunity has been successfully created in the
partner's account.
start_engagement_from_opportunity_task(client, input, options \\ [])
View SourceThis action initiates the engagement process from an existing opportunity by accepting the engagement invitation and creating a corresponding opportunity in the partner’s system.
Similar to StartEngagementByAcceptingInvitationTask
, this action is
asynchronous and performs multiple steps before completion.
Starts a resource snapshot job that has been previously created.
Stops a resource snapshot job.
The job must be started prior to being stopped.
Use this action to submit an opportunity that was previously created by partner for AWS review.
After you perform this action, the opportunity becomes non-editable until it
is reviewed by AWS and has LifeCycle.ReviewStatus
as either
Approved
or Action Required
.
Updates the Opportunity
record identified by a given
Identifier
.
This operation allows you to modify the details of an existing opportunity to reflect the latest information and progress. Use this action to keep the opportunity record up-to-date and accurate.
When you perform updates, include the entire payload with each request. If any
field
is omitted, the API assumes that the field is set to null
. The best
practice is to always perform a GetOpportunity
to retrieve the latest
values, then send the complete payload with the updated values to be changed.
