Example CloudTrail Event #

This is a projected export row, not a complete CloudTrail record: it shows only the envelope columns a SIEM export retained. The export never carried userIdentity, requestParameters, responseElements, sourceIPAddress, recipientAccountId, eventCategory, so their absence here says nothing about the real event. Account identifiers, ARNs and endpoint hostnames in eventID, requestID, resources, tlsDetails, userAgent are replaced with the placeholders AWS uses in its own documentation, so those values are structurally real but not the originals. errorMessage is withheld: it is free-form prose that names customer resources, which no substitution rule can find reliably. eventTime is withheld because the export renders it in the exporting system's local timezone rather than the UTC a CloudTrail record carries.

DescribeAutoScalingInstances

#
Service
autoscaling

Description

Gets information about the Auto Scaling instances in the account and Region. Operation catalog is model-derived from the AWS SDK (botocore); this (eventSource, eventName) pair is confirmed by an observed CloudTrail record.

Example CloudTrail Event #

This is a projected export row, not a complete CloudTrail record: it shows only the envelope columns a SIEM export retained. The export never carried userIdentity, requestParameters, responseElements, sourceIPAddress, recipientAccountId, eventCategory, so their absence here says nothing about the real event. Account identifiers, ARNs and endpoint hostnames in eventID, requestID, resources, tlsDetails, userAgent are replaced with the placeholders AWS uses in its own documentation, so those values are structurally real but not the originals. errorMessage is withheld: it is free-form prose that names customer resources, which no substitution rule can find reliably. eventTime is withheld because the export renders it in the exporting system's local timezone rather than the UTC a CloudTrail record carries.

DescribeWarmPool

#
Service
autoscaling

Description

Gets information about a warm pool and its instances. Operation catalog is model-derived from the AWS SDK (botocore); this (eventSource, eventName) pair is confirmed by an observed CloudTrail record.

Example CloudTrail Event #

This is a projected export row, not a complete CloudTrail record: it shows only the envelope columns a SIEM export retained. The export never carried userIdentity, requestParameters, responseElements, sourceIPAddress, recipientAccountId, eventCategory, so their absence here says nothing about the real event. Account identifiers, ARNs and endpoint hostnames in eventID, requestID, resources, tlsDetails, userAgent are replaced with the placeholders AWS uses in its own documentation, so those values are structurally real but not the originals. errorMessage is withheld: it is free-form prose that names customer resources, which no substitution rule can find reliably. eventTime is withheld because the export renders it in the exporting system's local timezone rather than the UTC a CloudTrail record carries.

This is a projected export row, not a complete CloudTrail record: it shows only the envelope columns a SIEM export retained. The export never carried userIdentity, requestParameters, responseElements, sourceIPAddress, recipientAccountId, eventCategory, so their absence here says nothing about the real event. Account identifiers, ARNs and endpoint hostnames in eventID, requestID, resources, tlsDetails, userAgent are replaced with the placeholders AWS uses in its own documentation, so those values are structurally real but not the originals. errorMessage is withheld: it is free-form prose that names customer resources, which no substitution rule can find reliably. eventTime is withheld because the export renders it in the exporting system's local timezone rather than the UTC a CloudTrail record carries.
