snapshotType

The type of cluster snapshots to be returned. You can specify one of the following values:

  • automated - Return all cluster snapshots that Amazon DocumentDB has automatically created for your Amazon Web Services account.

  • manual - Return all cluster snapshots that you have manually created for your Amazon Web Services account.

  • shared - Return all manual cluster snapshots that have been shared to your Amazon Web Services account.

  • public - Return all cluster snapshots that have been marked as public.

If you don't specify a SnapshotType value, then both automated and manual cluster snapshots are returned. You can include shared cluster snapshots with these results by setting the IncludeShared parameter to true. You can include public cluster snapshots with these results by setting theIncludePublic parameter to true.

The IncludeShared and IncludePublic parameters don't apply for SnapshotType values of manual or automated. The IncludePublic parameter doesn't apply when SnapshotType is set to shared. The IncludeShared parameter doesn't apply when SnapshotType is set to public.
