    Use this data source to get information about an EBS Snapshot for use when provisioning EBS Volumes

    Example Usage

    import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as aws from "@pulumi/aws";

const ebsVolume = aws.ebs.getSnapshot({

        {
            name: "tag:Name",
            values: ["Example"],
        },
    ],
});

    Using getSnapshot

    Two invocation forms are available. The direct form accepts plain arguments and either blocks until the result value is available, or returns a Promise-wrapped result. The output form accepts Input-wrapped arguments and returns an Output-wrapped result.
