Options¶

--streaming-distribution-config (structure)

The streaming distribution’s configuration information.

CallerReference -> (string)

A unique value (for example, a date-time stamp) that ensures that the request can’t be replayed.

If the value of CallerReference is new (regardless of the content of the StreamingDistributionConfig object), CloudFront creates a new distribution.

If CallerReference is a value that you already sent in a previous request to create a distribution, CloudFront returns a DistributionAlreadyExists error.

S3Origin -> (structure)

A complex type that contains information about the Amazon S3 bucket from which you want CloudFront to get your media files for distribution.

DomainName -> (string)

The DNS name of the Amazon S3 origin.

OriginAccessIdentity -> (string)

The CloudFront origin access identity to associate with the distribution. Use an origin access identity to configure the distribution so that end users can only access objects in an Amazon S3 bucket through CloudFront.

If you want end users to be able to access objects using either the CloudFront URL or the Amazon S3 URL, specify an empty OriginAccessIdentity element.

To delete the origin access identity from an existing distribution, update the distribution configuration and include an empty OriginAccessIdentity element.

To replace the origin access identity, update the distribution configuration and specify the new origin access identity.

For more information, see Using an Origin Access Identity to Restrict Access to Your Amazon S3 Content in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide .

Aliases -> (structure)

A complex type that contains information about CNAMEs (alternate domain names), if any, for this streaming distribution.

Quantity -> (integer)

The number of CNAME aliases, if any, that you want to associate with this distribution.

Items -> (list)

A complex type that contains the CNAME aliases, if any, that you want to associate with this distribution.

(string)

Comment -> (string)

Any comments you want to include about the streaming distribution.

Logging -> (structure)

A complex type that controls whether access logs are written for the streaming distribution.

Enabled -> (boolean)

Specifies whether you want CloudFront to save access logs to an Amazon S3 bucket. If you don’t want to enable logging when you create a streaming distribution or if you want to disable logging for an existing streaming distribution, specify false for Enabled , and specify empty Bucket and Prefix elements. If you specify false for Enabled but you specify values for Bucket and Prefix , the values are automatically deleted.

Bucket -> (string)

The Amazon S3 bucket to store the access logs in, for example, amzn-s3-demo-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com .

Prefix -> (string)

An optional string that you want CloudFront to prefix to the access log filenames for this streaming distribution, for example, myprefix/ . If you want to enable logging, but you don’t want to specify a prefix, you still must include an empty Prefix element in the Logging element.

TrustedSigners -> (structure)

A complex type that specifies any Amazon Web Services accounts that you want to permit to create signed URLs for private content. If you want the distribution to use signed URLs, include this element; if you want the distribution to use public URLs, remove this element. For more information, see Serving Private Content through CloudFront in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide .

Enabled -> (boolean)

This field is true if any of the Amazon Web Services accounts in the list are configured as trusted signers. If not, this field is false .

Quantity -> (integer)

The number of Amazon Web Services accounts in the list.

Items -> (list)

A list of Amazon Web Services account identifiers.

(string)

PriceClass -> (string)

A complex type that contains information about price class for this streaming distribution.

Enabled -> (boolean)

Whether the streaming distribution is enabled to accept user requests for content.

--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.

Global Options¶

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command’s default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

json
text
table
yaml
yaml-stream

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

on
off
auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-binary-format (string)

The formatting style to be used for binary blobs. The default format is base64. The base64 format expects binary blobs to be provided as a base64 encoded string. The raw-in-base64-out format preserves compatibility with AWS CLI V1 behavior and binary values must be passed literally. When providing contents from a file that map to a binary blob fileb:// will always be treated as binary and use the file contents directly regardless of the cli-binary-format setting. When using file:// the file contents will need to properly formatted for the configured cli-binary-format.

base64
raw-in-base64-out

--no-cli-pager (boolean)

Disable cli pager for output.

--cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

--no-cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Disable automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.
