get-domain

Description

Returns information about a specific domain recordset.

See also: AWS API Documentation

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Synopsis

  get-domain
--domain-name <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--domain-name (string)

The domain name for which your want to return information about.

--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.

Examples

To get information about a domain

The following get-domain example displays details about the domain example.com.

Note: Lightsail’s domain-related API operations are available in only the us-east-1 AWS Region. If your CLI profile is configured to use a different Region, you must include the`` –region us-east-1`` parameter or the command fails.

aws lightsail get-domain \
    --domain-name example.com \
    --region us-east-1
