    Provides an SSM Parameter data source.

    Example Usage

    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using System.Linq;
    using Pulumi;
    using Aws = Pulumi.Aws;
    
    return await Deployment.RunAsync(() => 
    {
        var foo = Aws.Ssm.GetParameter.Invoke(new()
        {
            Name = "foo",
        });
    
    });
    
    package main
    
    import (
    	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi-aws/sdk/v5/go/aws/ssm"
    	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi/sdk/v3/go/pulumi"
    )
    
    func main() {
    	pulumi.Run(func(ctx *pulumi.Context) error {
    		_, err := ssm.LookupParameter(ctx, &ssm.LookupParameterArgs{
    			Name: "foo",
    		}, nil)
    		if err != nil {
    			return err
    		}
    		return nil
    	})
    }

    Using getParameter

    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 getParameter(args: GetParameterArgs, opts?: InvokeOptions): Promise<GetParameterResult>
    function getParameterOutput(args: GetParameterOutputArgs, opts?: InvokeOptions): Output<GetParameterResult>
    def get_parameter(name: Optional[str] = None,
                      with_decryption: Optional[bool] = None,
                      opts: Optional[InvokeOptions] = None) -> GetParameterResult
    def get_parameter_output(name: Optional[pulumi.Input[str]] = None,
                      with_decryption: Optional[pulumi.Input[bool]] = None,
                      opts: Optional[InvokeOptions] = None) -> Output[GetParameterResult]
    func LookupParameter(ctx *Context, args *LookupParameterArgs, opts ...InvokeOption) (*LookupParameterResult, error)
    func LookupParameterOutput(ctx *Context, args *LookupParameterOutputArgs, opts ...InvokeOption) LookupParameterResultOutput

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

    public static class GetParameter 
    {
        public static Task<GetParameterResult> InvokeAsync(GetParameterArgs args, InvokeOptions? opts = null)
        public static Output<GetParameterResult> Invoke(GetParameterInvokeArgs args, InvokeOptions? opts = null)
    }
    public static CompletableFuture<GetParameterResult> getParameter(GetParameterArgs args, InvokeOptions options)
    public static Output<GetParameterResult> getParameter(GetParameterArgs args, InvokeOptions options)
    
    fn::invoke:
