AWS Organizations - list accounts for role [boto3]

Question

Hi,

We are planning to support for AWS Organizations in our product. We will need to retrieve very often the list of AWS accounts belonging to a given organization. Instead of frequently traversing the organization tree to discover new/deleted accounts (it may be slow), I wonder if there is any boto3 binding or api endpoint to list all organization accounts (and ideally filter by role). Thanks in advance.

Regards

Hello.

You can get a list of accounts in Organizations by using list_accounts() described in the following document.  
However, this cannot display a list of accounts across organizations, so if you want to cross organizations, you will need to set up cross-account roles, etc.

I think list_children() can be used to list by OU.
