The reconcile command reconciles your org's list of billable instances with the actual CloudFormation stacks currently in your AWS account, making it an essential tool to recover credits for stacks that were removed manually without running the remove command.
We generally recommend to always use the remove command to remove Serverless Framework stacks to ensure the removal is reported, but if you must remove stacks manually or your organization has a custom workflow, this command is the only way for us to know that your service instance was removed and that it should no longer be consuming credits.
If you have Serverless Framework stacks in multiple AWS accounts, you should run this command for each AWS account for a complete reconciliation and more accurate usage reporting and billing.
Note: This command might take a few minutes to complete depending on how many CloudFormation stacks you have in your AWS account.
By default, the reconcile command uses the us-east-1 region to fetch your AWS account ID. If you're working in a restricted environment where access to specific regions is blocked or where VPC endpoints are only available for certain regions, you can override this default behavior by setting the AWS_REGION environment variable:
AWS_REGION=eu-central-1 serverless reconcile
serverless reconcile
--org The org name to reconcile instances for. Defaults to your service org if found, or your default personal org.my-service $ serverless reconcile
Successfully recovered 3 Instance Credits from the 123456789012 AWS account.
