A reference to a unique stage identified in the format {restApiId}/{stage} .

restApiId -> (string)

The string identifier of the associated RestApi.

stageName -> (string)

The stage name associated with the stage key.

Shorthand Syntax:

restApiId=string,stageName=string ...

    "restApiId": "string",
    "stageName": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--customer-id (string)

An AWS Marketplace customer identifier , when integrating with the AWS SaaS Marketplace.

--tags (map)

key -> (string)

value -> (string)

Shorthand Syntax:

KeyName1=string,KeyName2=string

JSON Syntax:

--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.
