AWS Health announces support for organizational view in the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions, which allows you to view aggregated AWS Health events for your organization on the AWS Health Dashboard or access them programmatically via AWS Health API. AWS Health is the authoritative source of information about service events and planned changes affecting your AWS cloud resources.

This new feature enables you to view the operational issues or planned lifecycle events for all accounts and resources in your organization. You can also delegate an account other than the management account to view the aggregated AWS Health events across your organization using delegated administrator. 

AWS Health Dashboard is available to all customers. Programmatic access to the same AWS Health information using AWS Health API is available to AWS Business, AWS Enterprise On-Ramp, and AWS Enterprise Support customers. 

To enable this feature, access the AWS Health dashboard using your organization’s management account in AWS Organizations and follow the instructions on the configuration section of the console. You can also register up to five member accounts as a delegated administrator using the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI), which will then allow those accounts access to organizational view.
