list-jobs

Description

Returns an array of JobListEntry objects of the specified length. Each JobListEntry object contains a job’s state, a job’s ID, and a value that indicates whether the job is a job part, in the case of export jobs. Calling this API action in one of the US regions will return jobs from the list of all jobs associated with this account in all US regions.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

list-jobs is a paginated operation. Multiple API calls may be issued in order to retrieve the entire data set of results. You can disable pagination by providing the --no-paginate argument. When using --output text and the --query argument on a paginated response, the --query argument must extract data from the results of the following query expressions: JobListEntries

Synopsis

  list-jobs
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--starting-token <value>]
[--page-size <value>]
[--max-items <value>]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--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.

--starting-token (string)

A token to specify where to start paginating. This is the NextToken from a previously truncated response.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--page-size (integer)

The size of each page to get in the AWS service call. This does not affect the number of items returned in the command’s output. Setting a smaller page size results in more calls to the AWS service, retrieving fewer items in each call. This can help prevent the AWS service calls from timing out.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--max-items (integer)

The total number of items to return in the command’s output. If the total number of items available is more than the value specified, a NextToken is provided in the command’s output. To resume pagination, provide the NextToken value in the starting-token argument of a subsequent command. Do not use the NextToken response element directly outside of the AWS CLI.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--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 list the current Snowball jobs in your account

The following list-jobs example displays an array of JobListEntry objects. In this example, a single job is listed.

aws snowball list-jobs

Output:

{
    "JobListEntries": [
        {
            "CreationDate": 2016-09-27T14:50Z,
             "Description": "Important Photos 2016-08-11",
             "IsMaster": TRUE,
             "JobId": "ABCd1e324fe-022f-488e-a98b-3b0566063db1",
             "JobState": "Complete",
             "JobType": "IMPORT",
             "SnowballType": "EDGE"
        }
   ]
}

Output

JobListEntries -> (list)

Each JobListEntry object contains a job’s state, a job’s ID, and a value that indicates whether the job is a job part, in the case of export jobs.

(structure)

Each JobListEntry object contains a job’s state, a job’s ID, and a value that indicates whether the job is a job part, in the case of an export job.

JobId -> (string)

The automatically generated ID for a job, for example JID123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426655440000 .

JobState -> (string)

The current state of this job.

IsMaster -> (boolean)

A value that indicates that this job is a main job. A main job represents a successful request to create an export job. Main jobs aren’t associated with any Snowballs. Instead, each main job will have at least one job part, and each job part is associated with a Snowball. It might take some time before the job parts associated with a particular main job are listed, because they are created after the main job is created.

JobType -> (string)

The type of job.

SnowballType -> (string)

The type of device used with this job.

CreationDate -> (timestamp)

The creation date for this job.

Description -> (string)

The optional description of this specific job, for example Important Photos 2016-08-11 .

NextToken -> (string)

HTTP requests are stateless. If you use this automatically generated NextToken value in your next ListJobs call, your returned JobListEntry objects will start from this point in the array.
