I'm trying to use AWS Rekognition to get some information about the objects in a scene (photo). I'm only interested in specific labels which are provided in a database. Therefore I need to know the exact names of the labels. I'm using the DetectLabels API call.

However, I can't find a list of label names, AWS Rekognition provides. The developer guide only provides some fragments of possible responses. And the only thing the CLI help provides is:

         Name -> (string)
            The name (label) of the object.

Does anyone know where to find a complete list?

There seems no official list of labels available but there is a hint in the Q & A, quote:
