list all AWS services using API

You can list all AWS services using AWS Python SDK – Boto3 library:

import boto3
session = boto3.Session()
services = session.get_available_services()
for service in services:
    print(service)

In the example above, we’re using the Boto3 Session class to get a list of all available AWS services and a simple Python for-loop to print each.

All AWS Services available in my organization

Some large corporate organization limits the available services you can use by applying SCPs and preventing you from making API calls to AWS endpoints. Consult your local IT department to get a list of all AWS services available in your organization.

Summary

AWS is constantly updating and releasing new services, so it’s important to regularly check for updates to ensure that you have the most up-to-date list of services.
