Example Usage

The following example shows how the resource might be used to obtain

using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using Pulumi;
using Aws = Pulumi.Aws;

return await Deployment.RunAsync(() => 
{
    var current = Aws.GetRegion.Invoke();

});

package main

import (
	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi-aws/sdk/v5/go/aws"
	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi/sdk/v3/go/pulumi"
)

func main() {
	pulumi.Run(func(ctx *pulumi.Context) error {
		_, err := aws.GetRegion(ctx, nil, nil)
		if err != nil {
			return err
		}
		return nil
	})
}

Using getRegion

Two invocation forms are available. The direct form accepts plain arguments and either blocks until the result value is available, or returns a Promise-wrapped result. The output form accepts Input-wrapped arguments and returns an Output-wrapped result.

function getRegion(args: GetRegionArgs, opts?: InvokeOptions): Promise<GetRegionResult>
function getRegionOutput(args: GetRegionOutputArgs, opts?: InvokeOptions): Output<GetRegionResult>

def get_region(endpoint: Optional[str] = None,
               name: Optional[str] = None,
               opts: Optional[InvokeOptions] = None) -> GetRegionResult
def get_region_output(endpoint: Optional[pulumi.Input[str]] = None,
               name: Optional[pulumi.Input[str]] = None,
               opts: Optional[InvokeOptions] = None) -> Output[GetRegionResult]

func GetRegion(ctx *Context, args *GetRegionArgs, opts ...InvokeOption) (*GetRegionResult, error)
func GetRegionOutput(ctx *Context, args *GetRegionOutputArgs, opts ...InvokeOption) GetRegionResultOutput

> Note: This function is named GetRegion in the Go SDK.

public static class GetRegion 
{
    public static Task<GetRegionResult> InvokeAsync(GetRegionArgs args, InvokeOptions? opts = null)
    public static Output<GetRegionResult> Invoke(GetRegionInvokeArgs args, InvokeOptions? opts = null)
}

public static CompletableFuture<GetRegionResult> getRegion(GetRegionArgs args, InvokeOptions options)
public static Output<GetRegionResult> getRegion(GetRegionArgs args, InvokeOptions options)
