Can't Get Max Result Of Spot Price History - Us-east Region

When I retrieve the history price of spot for 'us-east-f1' or any region in 'us-east-1', the result always less than 200 price, I need for single region and single instance type. H

Solution 1:

Your code appears to be working just fine, but the start and end timestamps were backwards.

I ran this code:

import boto3
import datetime

start_date = datetime.datetime.now() - datetime.timedelta(90)
end_date = datetime.datetime.now() - datetime.timedelta(0)

ec2 = boto3.client('ec2', region_name='us-east-1')
paginator = ec2.get_paginator('describe_spot_price_history') 
page_iterator = paginator.paginate(InstanceTypes =['c3.4xlarge'],ProductDescriptions = ['Linux/UNIX'], AvailabilityZone = 'us-east-1a', StartTime= start_date, EndTime = end_date, MaxResults=2000 ) 

for page in page_iterator: 
   print page['SpotPriceHistory'] 

I got back one page that had 122 entries.

The first entry was for 2018-04-01:

{u'Timestamp': datetime.datetime(2018,
    4,
    1,
    4,
    40,
    44, tzinfo=tzutc()), u'AvailabilityZone': 'us-east-1a', u'InstanceType': 'c3.4xlarge', u'ProductDescription': 'Linux/UNIX', u'SpotPrice': '0.840000'
},

The last entry was for 2018-01-02:

{u'Timestamp': datetime.datetime(2018,
    1,
    2,
    0,
    28,
    35, tzinfo=tzutc()), u'AvailabilityZone': 'us-east-1a', u'InstanceType': 'c3.4xlarge', u'ProductDescription': 'Linux/UNIX', u'SpotPrice': '0.840000'
}

This cover the maximum 90 days of data that is available.

Solution 2:

To make an API call to another region, specify the region_name:

ec2 = boto3.client('ec2', region_name='ap-southeast-2')

When MaxResults is exceeded, obtain the next set of results by making the same call, but set NextToken to the value returned by NextToken in the previous result set.
