Options

--channel-arn (string)

The ARN of the channel.

--content (string)

The content of the message.

--type (string)

The type of message, STANDARD or CONTROL .

Possible values:

--persistence (string)

Boolean that controls whether the message is persisted on the back end. Required.

--metadata (string)

The optional metadata for each message.

--client-request-token (string)

The Idempotency token for each client request.

--chime-bearer (string)

The AppInstanceUserArn of the user that makes the API call.

--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.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.
