See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Synopsis

  get-action-type
--category <value>
--owner <value>
--provider <value>
--action-version <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--category (string)

A category defines what kind of action can be taken in the stage. Valid categories are limited to one of the following values:

  • Source

  • Build

  • Test

  • Deploy

  • Approval

  • Invoke

Possible values:

  • Source

  • Build

  • Deploy

  • Test

  • Invoke

  • Approval

--owner (string)

The creator of an action type that has been created with any supported integration model. There are two valid values for the owner field in the action type category: AWS and ThirdParty .

--provider (string)

The provider of the action type being called. The provider name is specified when the action type is created.

--action-version (string)

A string that describes the action type version.

--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.

description -> (string)

The description for the action type to be updated.

executor -> (structure)

Information about the executor for an action type that was created with any supported integration model.

configuration -> (structure)

The action configuration properties for the action type. These properties are specified in the action definition when the action type is created.

lambdaExecutorConfiguration -> (structure)

Details about the Lambda executor of the action type.

lambdaFunctionArn -> (string)

(string)

type -> (string)

  • Deploy

  • Approval

  • Invoke

Details for the output artifacts, such as a built application, that are the result of the action. For example, the minimum and maximum number of output artifacts allowed.

minimumCount -> (integer)

The minimum allowed number of artifacts that can be used with the action type. For example, you should specify a minimum and maximum of zero input artifacts for an action type with a category of source .

maximumCount -> (integer)

The maximum allowed number of artifacts that can be used with the actiontype. For example, you should specify a minimum and maximum of zero input artifacts for an action type with a category of source .

permissions -> (structure)
