describe-job-execution

Description

Describes a job execution.

Requires permission to access the DescribeJobExecution action.

See also: AWS API Documentation

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Synopsis

  describe-job-execution
--job-id <value>
--thing-name <value>
[--execution-number <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--job-id (string)

The unique identifier you assigned to this job when it was created.

--thing-name (string)

The name of the thing on which the job execution is running.

--execution-number (long)

A string (consisting of the digits “0” through “9” which is used to specify a particular job execution on a particular device.

--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 execution details for a job on a device

The following describe-job-execution example gets execution details for the specified job.

aws iot describe-job-execution \
    --job-id "example-job-01" \
    --thing-name "MyRaspberryPi"

Output:

{
    "execution": {
        "jobId": "example-job-01",
        "status": "QUEUED",
        "statusDetails": {},
        "thingArn": "arn:aws:iot:us-west-2:123456789012:thing/MyRaspberryPi",
        "queuedAt": 1560787023.636,
        "lastUpdatedAt": 1560787023.636,
        "executionNumber": 1,
        "versionNumber": 1
    }
}

Output

execution -> (structure)

Information about the job execution.

jobId -> (string)

The unique identifier you assigned to the job when it was created.

status -> (string)

The status of the job execution (IN_PROGRESS, QUEUED, FAILED, SUCCEEDED, TIMED_OUT, CANCELED, or REJECTED).

forceCanceled -> (boolean)

Will be true if the job execution was canceled with the optional force parameter set to true .

statusDetails -> (structure)

A collection of name/value pairs that describe the status of the job execution.

detailsMap -> (map)

The job execution status.

key -> (string)

value -> (string)

thingArn -> (string)

The ARN of the thing on which the job execution is running.

queuedAt -> (timestamp)

The time, in seconds since the epoch, when the job execution was queued.

startedAt -> (timestamp)

The time, in seconds since the epoch, when the job execution started.

lastUpdatedAt -> (timestamp)

The time, in seconds since the epoch, when the job execution was last updated.

executionNumber -> (long)

A string (consisting of the digits “0” through “9”) which identifies this particular job execution on this particular device. It can be used in commands which return or update job execution information.

versionNumber -> (long)

The version of the job execution. Job execution versions are incremented each time they are updated by a device.

approximateSecondsBeforeTimedOut -> (long)

The estimated number of seconds that remain before the job execution status will be changed to TIMED_OUT . The timeout interval can be anywhere between 1 minute and 7 days (1 to 10080 minutes). The actual job execution timeout can occur up to 60 seconds later than the estimated duration. This value will not be included if the job execution has reached a terminal status.
