get-query-results

Description

Returns the results from the specified query.

Only the fields requested in the query are returned, along with a @ptr field, which is the identifier for the log record. You can use the value of @ptr in a GetLogRecord operation to get the full log record.

GetQueryResults does not start running a query. To run a query, use StartQuery . For more information about how long results of previous queries are available, see CloudWatch Logs quotas .

If the value of the Status field in the output is Running , this operation returns only partial results. If you see a value of Scheduled or Running for the status, you can retry the operation later to see the final results.

If you are using CloudWatch cross-account observability, you can use this operation in a monitoring account to start queries in linked source accounts. For more information, see CloudWatch cross-account observability .

Options

--query-id (string)

The ID number of the query.

--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.

Output

queryLanguage -> (string)

The query language used for this query. For more information about the query languages that CloudWatch Logs supports, see Supported query languages .

results -> (list)

The log events that matched the query criteria during the most recent time it ran.

The results value is an array of arrays. Each log event is one object in the top-level array. Each of these log event objects is an array of field /value pairs.

(list)

(structure)

Contains one field from one log event returned by a CloudWatch Logs Insights query, along with the value of that field.

For more information about the fields that are generated by CloudWatch logs, see Supported Logs and Discovered Fields .

field -> (string)

The log event field.

value -> (string)

The value of this field.

statistics -> (structure)

Includes the number of log events scanned by the query, the number of log events that matched the query criteria, and the total number of bytes in the scanned log events. These values reflect the full raw results of the query.

recordsMatched -> (double)

The number of log events that matched the query string.

recordsScanned -> (double)

The total number of log events scanned during the query.

estimatedRecordsSkipped -> (double)

An estimate of the number of log events that were skipped when processing this query, because the query contained an indexed field. Skipping these entries lowers query costs and improves the query performance time. For more information about field indexes, see PutIndexPolicy .

bytesScanned -> (double)

The total number of bytes in the log events scanned during the query.

estimatedBytesSkipped -> (double)

An estimate of the number of bytes in the log events that were skipped when processing this query, because the query contained an indexed field. Skipping these entries lowers query costs and improves the query performance time. For more information about field indexes, see PutIndexPolicy .

logGroupsScanned -> (double)

The number of log groups that were scanned by this query.

status -> (string)

The status of the most recent running of the query. Possible values are Cancelled , Complete , Failed , Running , Scheduled , Timeout , and Unknown .

Queries time out after 60 minutes of runtime. To avoid having your queries time out, reduce the time range being searched or partition your query into a number of queries.

encryptionKey -> (string)

If you associated an KMS key with the CloudWatch Logs Insights query results in this account, this field displays the ARN of the key that’s used to encrypt the query results when StartQuery stores them.
