Reference documentation and code samples for the Cloud Security Command Center V1 API class Google::Cloud::SecurityCenter::V1::AwsMetadata::AwsOrganizationalUnit.
An Organizational Unit (OU) is a container of AWS accounts within a root of
an organization. Policies that are attached to an OU apply to all accounts
contained in that OU and in any child OUs.
(::String) — The unique identifier (ID) associated with this OU. The regex pattern for
an organizational unit ID string requires "ou-" followed by from 4 to 32
lowercase letters or digits (the ID of the root that contains the OU).
This string is followed by a second "-" dash and from 8 to 32 additional
lowercase letters or digits. For example, "ou-ab12-cd34ef56".
