list-channels

Description

Lists all Channels created under a single Chime App as a paginated list. You can specify filters to narrow results.

Functionality & restrictions

  • Use privacy = PUBLIC to retrieve all public channels in the account.

  • Only an AppInstanceAdmin can set privacy = PRIVATE to list the private channels in an account.

Note

The x-amz-chime-bearer request header is mandatory. Use the AppInstanceUserArn of the user that makes the API call as the value in the header.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Synopsis

  list-channels
--app-instance-arn <value>
[--privacy <value>]
[--max-results <value>]
[--next-token <value>]
--chime-bearer <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--app-instance-arn (string)

The ARN of the AppInstance .

--privacy (string)

The privacy setting. PUBLIC retrieves all the public channels. PRIVATE retrieves private channels. Only an AppInstanceAdmin can retrieve private channels.

Possible values:

  • PUBLIC

  • PRIVATE

--max-results (integer)

The maximum number of channels that you want to return.

--next-token (string)

The token passed by previous API calls until all requested channels are returned.

--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.
