3. Output Parameters

Parameter Name	Type	Description
AutoScalingGroupId	String	The scaling group ID.
RequestId	String	The unique request ID, generated by the server, will be returned for every request (if the request fails to reach the server for other reasons, the request will not obtain a RequestId). RequestId is required for locating a problem.
