See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.
list-instances
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: Instances
list-instances
--cluster-id <value>
[--instance-group-id <value>]
[--instance-group-types <value>]
[--instance-fleet-id <value>]
[--instance-fleet-type <value>]
[--instance-states <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--starting-token <value>]
[--max-items <value>]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]
--cluster-id
(string)
The identifier of the cluster for which to list the instances.
--instance-group-id
(string)
The identifier of the instance group for which to list the instances.
--instance-group-types
(list)
The type of instance group for which to list the instances.
(string)
Syntax:
"string" "string" ...
Where valid values are:
MASTER
CORE
TASK
--instance-fleet-id
(string)
The unique identifier of the instance fleet.
--instance-fleet-type
(string)
The node type of the instance fleet. For example MASTER, CORE, or TASK.
Possible values:
MASTER
CORE
TASK
--instance-states
(list)
A list of instance states that will filter the instances returned with this request.
(string)
Syntax:
"string" "string" ...
Where valid values are:
AWAITING_FULFILLMENT
PROVISIONING
BOOTSTRAPPING
RUNNING
TERMINATED
--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 .
--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 theNextToken
value in thestarting-token
argument of a subsequent command. Do not use theNextToken
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.
