Given this example of aws-cli command
aws rds describe-db-cluster-snapshots
I returns a list of objects with fields.
I only want to display the fields: "SnapshotCreateTime" and "DBClusterIdentifier"
How do I do this?
AWS CLI provides built-in output filtering capabilities with the --query option.
aws rds describe-db-cluster-snapshots --query 'DBClusterSnapshots[*].[SnapshotCreateTime,DBClusterIdentifier]'
The above will work if your AWS CLI configured in the same region and have single AWS CLI profile. If AWS CLI configured in a different region and different profile then you can use below command.
aws rds describe-db-cluster-snapshots --query 'DBClusterSnapshots[*].[SnapshotCreateTime,DBClusterIdentifier]' --region us-west-2 --profile test

I am trying to use the AWS CLI to retrieve the list of tags and values attached to an AWS account inside our AWS Organisation without sucesss. Is there somebody that has done this before?
I tried the followwing: aws organizations list-accounts --query 'Accounts[].Id'); do aws resourcegroupstaggingapi get-resources --query 'ResourceTagMappingList[].{ResourceARN:ResourceARN,Tags:Tags}' --output table --resource-type-filters AWS::AllSupported --region us-east-1 --account-id $account_id
but not luck
I'm trying to use the AWS CLI to list all the AWS RDS instances that I have that are in a Stopped status.
It's possible with EC2 with aws ec2 describe-instances and adding a filter --filters "Name=instance-state-name,Values=stopped".
However, with aws rds describe-db-instances, I do not find an equivalent. There is a --filter option, but only had the following options as filters: db-cluster-id, db-instance-id, dbi-resource-id, domain, engine.
So what AWS CLI command can I use to list all the RDS instances that are currently Stopped (Status=stopped)?
Use --query instead of --filters:
something like:
aws rds describe-db-instances --query '...'
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-usage-filter.html
You can do something like this:
aws rds describe-db-instances --query 'DBInstances[].DBInstanceStatus[]'
output:
[
"available"
]
Is it possible using the CLI in AWS cloud9 to acquire the current user name?
In terraform its possible to get a user's display name with a module like
data.aws_canonical_user_id.current.display_name
...But it would be good to also be able to achieve this without terraform.
If want to use AWS CLI, that AWS docs explain how to get the canonical user id:
aws s3api list-buckets --query Owner.ID --output text
Display Name:
aws s3api list-buckets --query Owner.DisplayName --output text
Account id:
aws sts get-caller-identity --query Account --output text
I need to get information such as VPCs, subnets, security groups, etc for many AWS accounts at once. How can I go about this?
One solution is to use a for loop with the AWS CLI. Check out the CLI Documentation for the service that you're wanting to gather information for and find the appropriate commands then use a for loop to loop over the profiles in your ~/.aws/credentials file.
For example, if you're wanting to get the VPCs, subnets, and security groups, those are all described in the EC2 CLI docs.
Here is an example of getting information about those resources and outputting it into the current directory as .json (this assumes you didn't change the default output format when using aws configure
#!/usr/bin/env bash
region=us-east-1
for profile in `grep [[] ~/.aws/credentials | tr -d '[]'`
do
echo "getting vpcs, subnets, and security groups for $profile"
aws ec2 describe-vpcs --region $region --profile $profile > "$profile"_vpcs.json
aws ec2 describe-subnets --region $region --profile $profile > "$profile"_subnets.json
aws ec2 describe-security-groups --region $region --profile $profile > "$profile"_security_groups.json
done
How to get list available regions from amazon?
Before I tried next query
https://ec2.amazonaws.com/?Action=DescribeRegions&AWSAccessKeyId=****&SignatureMethod=HmacSHA256&SignatureVersion=1&Version=2013-08-15
But I get "AWS was not able to validate the provided access credentials" and I don't sure that it correct query.
Your Question Does not seem to specify what services you need to use and how but here is generic example from AWS CLI:
Using describe-regions will give answer to your question , example to describe region names only:
aws ec2 describe-regions --query 'Regions[].{Name:RegionName}' --output text output will be like:
ap-south-1
eu-west-1
ap-southeast-1
ap-southeast-2
eu-central-1
ap-northeast-2
ap-northeast-1
us-east-1
sa-east-1
us-west-1
us-west-2
This is the AWS CLI Documentation that you can refer.
