DescribeAttack

Source: src/AWS/Shield/DescribeAttack.ts

Runtime binding for shield:DescribeAttack.

Hydrates the full detail document of a DDoS attack (vectors, counters, mitigations, sub-resources) from an attack id surfaced by ListAttacks. Requires an active Shield Advanced subscription; a nonexistent attack id answers with an empty document or the typed AccessDeniedException. Provide the implementation with Effect.provide(AWS.Shield.DescribeAttackHttp).
