Retrieve a parameter value or return the cached value

Parameters

name : str
Parameter name
max_age : int, optional
Maximum age of the cached value
transform : str
Optional transformation of the parameter value. Supported values are "json" for JSON strings and "binary" for base 64 encoded values.
decrypt : bool, optional
If the parameter value should be decrypted
force_fetch : bool, optional
Force update even before a cached item has expired, defaults to False
sdk_options : dict, optional
Arguments that will be passed directly to the underlying API call

Raises

GetParameterError
When the parameter provider fails to retrieve a parameter value for a given name.
TransformParameterError
When the parameter provider fails to transform a parameter value.

Raise_on_error decides on error handling strategy:

  • A) Default to fail-fast. Raises GetParameterError upon any error
  • B) Gracefully aggregate all parameters that failed under "_errors" key

It transparently uses GetParameter and/or GetParameters depending on decryption requirements.
