Synopsis¶

  describe-commands
[--deployment-id <value>]
[--instance-id <value>]
[--command-ids <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]
[--cli-auto-prompt <value>]

Options¶

--deployment-id (string)

The deployment ID. If you include this parameter, DescribeCommands returns a description of the commands associated with the specified deployment.

--instance-id (string)

The instance ID. If you include this parameter, DescribeCommands returns a description of the commands associated with the specified instance.

--command-ids (list)

An array of command IDs. If you include this parameter, DescribeCommands returns a description of the specified commands. Otherwise, it returns a description of every command.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

--cli-auto-prompt (boolean) Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.
