AWS access portal URL taken already - find out by whom

Question

I'm part of a startup (few years old) and just now trying to setup some services within AWS and after doing some basic setup in the IAM Identity Center I attempted to change the "AWS access portal URL" from the default (which is something like https://d-99999999999.awsapps.com/start) to a custom name. I tried to change it to https://herobullion.awsapps.com/start, but it gave me an error "Alias [ herobullion ] already associated with some other directory. Try with a different alias." I'm trying to figure out where this url is already registered, is there a way to find out?

One clue I have is that https://herobullion.awsapps.com/start redirects to a login page for Amazon WorkDocs, which is a service that none of my coworkers think they have setup before, but I suspect that one of us is just forgetting. Our company doesn't use WorkDocs at all and I would prefer if I could find which account has registered this domain  so I can go unconfigure it. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Accepted Answer

In general, we can't provide these sorts of details because it violates the privacy of other customers. If you think that one of your co-workers have taken this particular name, I'd suggest going through each account and seeing what is active there. Given that things can be deployed in different regions, I'd either write a script to query for the appropriate details in all regions; or use Config to do the work for you.
