Given a service name from SDK/API, where could I get the user friendly title and/or description?

Question

While working across multiple AWS accounts that leverage different AWS Services, I can pull those services using the SDK/API's but get lists like:

* acm
* dax
* ecr
* ecs
* kms

However the consumers of this data are not AWS experts - Is there a consistent way to get the user-friendly title and/or description for any given service using the identifiers from the SDK/API's?

(even a website that can pass a param of the value to get the title and/or description would be a possible workaround)

Thanks!

Hi,

Thank you for contacting AWS re:Post !

Going through the issue, I could confirm that retrieving user-friendly title and/or description for any given service using the identifiers from the SDK/API's is not supported yet .

I apologize for the service limitation and have forwarded the feedback to the service team. 
I can't provide you with an ETA for when the feature will be released, however if it's released, it should be announced in the AWS What's New blog below:
