Find out deployment type of existing ECS service

The AWS doc describes three potential deployment types for a service: "ECS", "CODE_DEPLOY", and "EXTERNAL". When creating a new service you can choose between "ECS" or "CODE_DEPLOY".

I have an existing service. I checked the following places to find out its deployment type:

Not one of them mentions anything about a deployment type, nor any of the three enum values above. I'm guessing my service has the default deployment type, and that the default deployment type is "ECS", but I haven't found anything in the docs validating this.

How can I figure out my service's deployment type?

I understand it is bit confusing , well deployment type is called deployment controller , so you can pass the parameter to aws cli as deploymentController , if you do not pass anything then by default it takes 'ECS' , you can find more details for aws cli in the link below and we can use same parameter in terraform as well, I have provided you an example for terraform link.

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/APIReference/API_CreateService.html#API_CreateService_RequestSyntax

resource "aws_ecs_service" "example" {
  name    = "example"
  cluster = aws_ecs_cluster.example.id

  deployment_controller {
    type = "EXTERNAL"
  }
}
