describe-delivery-channels¶

Description¶

Returns details about the specified delivery channel. If a delivery channel is not specified, this action returns the details of all delivery channels associated with the account.

Note

Currently, you can specify only one delivery channel per region in your account.

Synopsis¶

  describe-delivery-channels
[--delivery-channel-names <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options¶

--delivery-channel-names (list)

A list of delivery channel names.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--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. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples¶

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To get details about the delivery channel

The following command returns details about the delivery channel:

aws configservice describe-delivery-channels

Output:

{
    "DeliveryChannels": [
        {
            "snsTopicARN": "arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:123456789012:config-topic",
            "name": "default",
            "s3BucketName": "config-bucket-123456789012"
        }
    ]
}

Output¶

DeliveryChannels -> (list)

A list that contains the descriptions of the specified delivery channel.

(structure)

The channel through which Config delivers notifications and updated configuration states.

name -> (string)

The name of the delivery channel. By default, Config assigns the name “default” when creating the delivery channel. To change the delivery channel name, you must use the DeleteDeliveryChannel action to delete your current delivery channel, and then you must use the PutDeliveryChannel command to create a delivery channel that has the desired name.

s3BucketName -> (string)

The name of the Amazon S3 bucket to which Config delivers configuration snapshots and configuration history files.

If you specify a bucket that belongs to another Amazon Web Services account, that bucket must have policies that grant access permissions to Config. For more information, see Permissions for the Amazon S3 Bucket in the Config Developer Guide .

s3KeyPrefix -> (string)

The prefix for the specified Amazon S3 bucket.

s3KmsKeyArn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Key Management Service (KMS ) KMS key (KMS key) used to encrypt objects delivered by Config. Must belong to the same Region as the destination S3 bucket.

snsTopicARN -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon SNS topic to which Config sends notifications about configuration changes.

If you choose a topic from another account, the topic must have policies that grant access permissions to Config. For more information, see Permissions for the Amazon SNS Topic in the Config Developer Guide .

configSnapshotDeliveryProperties -> (structure)

The options for how often Config delivers configuration snapshots to the Amazon S3 bucket.

deliveryFrequency -> (string)

The frequency with which Config delivers configuration snapshots.
