EC2 Describe Volumes
Describes the specified EBS volumes or all of your EBS volumes. If you are describing a long list of volumes, we recommend that you paginate the output to make the list more manageable. The MaxResults parameter sets the maximum number of results returned in a single page. If the list of results exceeds your MaxResults value, then that number of results is returned along with a NextToken value that can be passed to a subsequent DescribeVolumes request to retrieve the remaining results. For more information about EBS volumes, see Amazon EBS volumes in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide.

Basic Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| AWS Region | Enter the desired AWS Region.If no Region is specified, and the requested service supports Regions, AWS routes the request to us-east-1 by default. |
| Filters | The filters. attachment.attach-time - The time stamp when the attachment initiated. attachment.delete-on-termination - Whether the volume is deleted on instance termination. attachment.device - The device name specified in the block device mapping (for example, /dev/sda1). attachment.instance-id - The ID of the instance the volume is attached to. attachment.status - The attachment state (attaching | attached | detaching). availability-zone - The Availability Zone in which the volume was created. create-time - The time stamp when the volume was created. encrypted - Indicates whether the volume is encrypted (true | false) multi-attach-enabled - Indicates whether the volume is enabled for Multi-Attach (true | false) fast-restored - Indicates whether the volume was created from a snapshot that is enabled for fast snapshot restore (true | false). size - The size of the volume, in GiB. snapshot-id - The snapshot from which the volume was created. status - The state of the volume (creating | available | in-use | deleting | deleted | error). tag:<key> - The key/value combination of a tag assigned to the resource. Use the tag key in the filter name and the tag value as the filter value. For example, to find all resources that have a tag with the key Owner and the value TeamA, specify tag:Owner for the filter name and TeamA for the filter value. tag-key - The key of a tag assigned to the resource. Use this filter to find all resources assigned a tag with a specific key, regardless of the tag value. volume-id - The volume ID. volume-type - The Amazon EBS volume type (gp2 | gp3 | io1 | io2 | st1 | sc1| standard). |
| Volume IDs | The volume IDs, space separated.Input Example:vol-123df61146c4d7901 vol-456df61146c4d7901 |
Advanced Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| Disable XML To JSON Auto Convert | When checked, XML responses are not automatically converted into JSON format. |
| Dry Run | Checks whether you have the required permissions for the action, without actually making the request, and provides an error response. If you have the required permissions, the error response is DryRunOperation. Otherwise, it is UnauthorizedOperation. |
| Max Results | The maximum number of results to return in a single call. To retrieve the remaining results, make another call with the returned NextToken value. This value can be between 5 and 1000. You cannot specify this parameter and the instance IDs parameter in the same call. |
| Next Token | The token to request the next page of results. |
