aws.organizations.list_organizational_units_for_parent

Example SQL Queries

SELECT * FROM
aws.organizations.list_organizational_units_for_parent
WHERE
"parent_id" = 'VALUE';

Description

Lists the organizational units (OUs) in a parent organizational unit or root.

Always check the NextToken response parameter for a null value when calling a List* operation. These operations can occasionally return an empty set of results even when there are more results available. The NextToken response parameter value is null only when there are no more results to display.

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.
