ec2_url		Url to use to connect to EC2 or your Eucalyptus cloud (by default the module will use EC2 endpoints). Ignored for modules where region is required. Must be specified for all other modules if region is not used. If not set then the value of the EC2_URL environment variable, if any, is used.
filters		A dict of filters to apply. Each dict item consists of a filter key and a filter value. See http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/APIReference/API_DescribeVpcEndpoints.html for possible filters.

Notes ¶

Note

If parameters are not set within the module, the following environment variables can be used in decreasing order of precedence AWS_URL or EC2_URL, AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID or AWS_ACCESS_KEY or EC2_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY or AWS_SECRET_KEY or EC2_SECRET_KEY, AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN or EC2_SECURITY_TOKEN, AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION
Ansible uses the boto configuration file (typically ~/.boto) if no credentials are provided. See https://boto.readthedocs.io/en/latest/boto_config_tut.html
AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION can be typically be used to specify the AWS region, when required, but this can also be configured in the boto config file

Return Values ¶

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:

Key	Returned	Description
service_names list	query is `services`	AWS VPC endpoint service names Sample: {'service_names': ['com.amazonaws.ap-southeast-2.s3']}
vpc_endpoints list	query is `endpoints`	A list of endpoints that match the query. Each endpoint has the keys creation_timestamp, policy_document, route_table_ids, service_name, state, vpc_endpoint_id, vpc_id. Sample: {'vpc_endpoints': [{'policy_document': '"{"Version":"2012-10-17","Id":"Policy1450910922815", "Statement":[{"Sid":"Stmt1450910920641","Effect":"Allow", "Principal":"","Action":"s3:","Resource":["arn:aws:s3:::/","arn:aws:s3:::*"]}]}"\n', 'vpc_endpoint_id': 'vpce-abbad0d0', 'vpc_id': 'vpc-1111ffff', 'service_name': 'com.amazonaws.ap-southeast-2.s3', 'creation_timestamp': '2017-02-16T11:06:48+00:00', 'state': 'available', 'route_table_ids': ['rtb-abcd1234']}]}
