Options¶
--room-filters (list)
The filters to use to send an announcement to a specified list of rooms. The supported filter keys are RoomName, ProfileName, RoomArn, and ProfileArn. To send to all rooms, specify an empty RoomFilters list.
(structure)
A filter name and value pair that is used to return a more specific list of results. Filters can be used to match a set of resources by various criteria.
Key -> (string)
The key of a filter.
Values -> (list)
The values of a filter.
(string)
Shorthand Syntax:
Key=string,Values=string,string ...
JSON Syntax:
[
{
"Key": "string",
"Values": ["string", ...]
}
...
]
--content (structure)
The announcement content. This can contain only one of the three possible announcement types (text, SSML or audio).
TextList -> (list)
The list of text messages.
(structure)
The text message.
Locale -> (string)
The locale of the text message. Currently, en-US is supported.
Value -> (string)
The value of the text message.
SsmlList -> (list)
The list of SSML messages.
(structure)
The SSML message. For more information, see SSML Reference .
Locale -> (string)
The locale of the SSML message. Currently, en-US is supported.
Value -> (string)
The value of the SSML message in the correct SSML format. The audio tag is not supported.
AudioList -> (list)
The list of audio messages.
(structure)
The audio message. There is a 1 MB limit on the audio file input and the only supported format is MP3. To convert your MP3 audio files to an Alexa-friendly,
required codec version (MPEG version 2) and bit rate (48 kbps), you might use converter software. One option for this is a command-line tool, FFmpeg. For more information, see FFmpeg . The following command converts the provided <input-file> to an MP3 file that is played in the announcement:
ffmpeg -i <input-file> -ac 2 -codec:a libmp3lame -b:a 48k -ar 16000 <output-file.mp3>Locale -> (string)
The locale of the audio message. Currently, en-US is supported.
Location -> (string)
The location of the audio file. Currently, S3 URLs are supported. Only S3 locations comprised of safe characters are valid. For more information, see Safe Characters .
Shorthand Syntax:
TextList=[{Locale=string,Value=string},{Locale=string,Value=string}],SsmlList=[{Locale=string,Value=string},{Locale=string,Value=string}],AudioList=[{Locale=string,Location=string},{Locale=string,Location=string}]
JSON Syntax:
{
"TextList": [
{
"Locale": "en-US",
"Value": "string"
}
...
],
"SsmlList": [
{
"Locale": "en-US",
"Value": "string"
}
...
],
"AudioList": [
{
"Locale": "en-US",
"Location": "string"
}
...
]
}
--time-to-live-in-seconds (integer)
The time to live for an announcement. Default is 300. If delivery doesn’t occur within this time, the announcement is not delivered.
--client-request-token (string)
The unique, user-specified identifier for the request that ensures idempotency.
--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.
