RI Portfolio Legacy End Point

Summary

The RI Portfolio end point can be used to retrieve a list of all your current and historical Reserved Instances (RIs). This Cloudability feature is especially handy as it aggregates RIs across all of your linked and master payer accounts for EC2, RDS, Redshift and Elasticache.

Examples in this document will focus on EC2, but you will find patterns consistent across other AWS products.

• This end point supports filtering and sorting.

End Point Particulars

These end points are read-only for retrieving a list of Reservation Objects

end point : /reservations/aws/portfolio/ec2

end point : /reservations/aws/portfolio/rds

end point : /reservations/aws/portfolio/redshift

    "aggregate": {
      "quantity": 24615
