Creates a journal stream for a given Amazon QLDB ledger. The stream captures every document revision that is committed to the ledger’s journal and delivers the data to a specified Amazon Kinesis Data Streams resource.

--ledger-name
(string)
The name of the ledger.
--role-arn
(string)
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the IAM role that grants QLDB permissions for a journal stream to write data records to a Kinesis Data Streams resource.
To pass a role to QLDB when requesting a journal stream, you must have permissions to perform the
iam:PassRole
action on the IAM role resource. This is required for all journal stream requests.
--tags
(map)
The key-value pairs to add as tags to the stream that you want to create. Tag keys are case sensitive. Tag values are case sensitive and can be null.
key -> (string)
value -> (string)
Shorthand Syntax:
KeyName1=string,KeyName2=string
JSON Syntax:
{"string": "string"
...}
--inclusive-start-time
(timestamp)
The inclusive start date and time from which to start streaming journal data. This parameter must be in
ISO 8601
date and time format and in Universal Coordinated Time (UTC). For example:2019-06-13T21:36:34Z
.The
InclusiveStartTime
cannot be in the future and must be beforeExclusiveEndTime
.If you provide an
InclusiveStartTime
that is before the ledger’sCreationDateTime
, QLDB effectively defaults it to the ledger’sCreationDateTime
.
--exclusive-end-time
(timestamp)
The exclusive date and time that specifies when the stream ends. If you don’t define this parameter, the stream runs indefinitely until you cancel it.
The
ExclusiveEndTime
must be inISO 8601
date and time format and in Universal Coordinated Time (UTC). For example:2019-06-13T21:36:34Z
.
--kinesis-configuration
(structure)
The configuration settings of the Kinesis Data Streams destination for your stream request.
StreamArn -> (string)
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Kinesis Data Streams resource.
AggregationEnabled -> (boolean)
Enables QLDB to publish multiple data records in a single Kinesis Data Streams record, increasing the number of records sent per API call.
This option is enabled by default. Record aggregation has important implications for processing records and requires de-aggregation in your stream consumer. To learn more, see KPL Key Concepts and Consumer De-aggregation in the Amazon Kinesis Data Streams Developer Guide .
Shorthand Syntax:
StreamArn=string,AggregationEnabled=boolean
JSON Syntax:
{
"StreamArn": "string",
"AggregationEnabled": true|false
}
--stream-name
(string)
The name that you want to assign to the QLDB journal stream. User-defined names can help identify and indicate the purpose of a stream.
Your stream name must be unique among other active streams for a given ledger. Stream names have the same naming constraints as ledger names, as defined in Quotas in Amazon QLDB in the Amazon QLDB Developer Guide .
--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.
Example 1: To stream journal data to Kinesis Data Streams using input files
The following stream-journal-to-kinesis
example creates a stream of journal data within a specified date and time range from a ledger with the name myExampleLedger
. The stream sends the data to a specified Amazon Kinesis data stream.
aws qldb stream-journal-to-kinesis \
--ledger-name myExampleLedger \
--inclusive-start-time 2020-05-29T00:00:00Z \
--exclusive-end-time 2020-05-29T23:59:59Z \
--role-arn arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/my-kinesis-stream-role \
--kinesis-configuration file://my-kinesis-config.json \
--stream-name myExampleLedger-stream
Contents of my-kinesis-config.json
:
{
"StreamArn": "arn:aws:kinesis:us-east-1:123456789012:stream/stream-for-qldb",
"AggregationEnabled": true
}
Output:
{
"StreamId": "7ISCkqwe4y25YyHLzYUFAf"
}

Example 2: To stream journal data to Kinesis Data Streams using shorthand syntax
The following stream-journal-to-kinesis
example creates a stream of journal data within a specified date and time range from a ledger with the name myExampleLedger
. The stream sends the data to a specified Amazon Kinesis data stream.
aws qldb stream-journal-to-kinesis \
--ledger-name myExampleLedger \
--inclusive-start-time 2020-05-29T00:00:00Z \
--exclusive-end-time 2020-05-29T23:59:59Z \
--role-arn arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/my-kinesis-stream-role \
--stream-name myExampleLedger-stream \
--kinesis-configuration StreamArn=arn:aws:kinesis:us-east-1:123456789012:stream/stream-for-qldb,AggregationEnabled=true
Output:
{
"StreamId": "7ISCkqwe4y25YyHLzYUFAf"
}
For more information, see Streaming journal data from Amazon QLDB in the Amazon QLDB Developer Guide.
StreamId -> (string)
The UUID (represented in Base62-encoded text) that QLDB assigns to each QLDB journal stream.
