DescribeSeverityLevels

Returns the list of severity levels that you can assign to a support case. The severity level for a case is also a field in the CaseDetails data type that you include for a CreateCase request.

Note

You must have an AWS Business Support+, AWS Enterprise Support, or AWS Unified Operations plan to use the AWS Support API. If you're in an AWS Region that doesn't offer one of these AWS Support plans, or if you haven't transitioned to one of these plans, you can use the AWS Support API with a Business, Enterprise On-Ramp, or Enterprise Support plan.
If you call the AWS Support API from an account that doesn't have an AWS Business Support+, AWS Enterprise Support, or AWS Unified Operations plan, the SubscriptionRequiredException error message appears. For information about changing your support plan, see AWS Support.
