list-flows¶

Description¶

Displays a list of flows that are associated with this account. This request returns a paginated result.

Synopsis¶

  list-flows
[--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. 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 .

Output¶

Flows -> (list)

A list of flow summaries.

(structure)

Provides a summary of a flow, including its ARN, Availability Zone, and source type.

AvailabilityZone -> (string)

The Availability Zone that the flow was created in.

Description -> (string)

A description of the flow.

FlowArn -> (string)

The ARN of the flow.

Name -> (string)

The name of the flow.

SourceType -> (string)

The type of source. This value is either owned (originated somewhere other than an AWS Elemental MediaConnect flow owned by another AWS account) or entitled (originated at an AWS Elemental MediaConnect flow owned by another AWS account).

Status -> (string)

The current status of the flow.

Maintenance -> (structure)

The maintenance setting of a flow

MaintenanceDay -> (string)

A day of a week when the maintenance will happen. Use Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday/Friday/Saturday/Sunday.

MaintenanceDeadline -> (string)

The Maintenance has to be performed before this deadline in ISO UTC format. Example: 2021-01-30T08:30:00Z.

MaintenanceScheduledDate -> (string)

A scheduled date in ISO UTC format when the maintenance will happen. Use YYYY-MM-DD format. Example: 2021-01-30.

MaintenanceStartHour -> (string)

UTC time when the maintenance will happen. Use 24-hour HH:MM format. Minutes must be 00. Example: 13:00. The default value is 02:00.

NextToken -> (string)

The token that identifies which batch of results that you want to see. For example, you submit a ListFlows request with MaxResults set at 5. The service returns the first batch of results (up to 5) and a NextToken value. To see the next batch of results, you can submit the ListFlows request a second time and specify the NextToken value.
