Searching for jobs - MediaConvert
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

Searching for jobs

You can search recent jobs that you created in available Amazon Web Services Regions according to input file name. After three months, the service automatically deletes the record of a job.

Console

To search your jobs by using the MediaConvert console:

  1. Open the Search page in the MediaConvert console.

  2. Optionally, filter the list by queue, job status, or input file name.

  3. To see details for a job, choose a Job ID to view its Job summary page.

CLI

The following search-jobs example searches for a job with an input file name my-video.mp4 in the Default queue with a status of COMPLETE. Note that status can be SUBMITTED, PROGRESSING, COMPLETE, CANCELED, or ERROR. Leave status or queue out to search all job statuses or queues:

aws mediaconvert search-jobs \
	--input-file my-video.mp4 \
	--status COMPLETE \
	--queue Default

Optionally, you can also search for any part of the input file name string:

aws mediaconvert search-jobs --input-file s3://amzn-s3-demo-bucket/my-video.mp4
aws mediaconvert search-jobs --input-file my-video

The Amazon CLI will return a JSON similar to the following example:

{
    "jobs": [
        {
            "arn": "arn:aws:mediaconvert:us-west-2:111122223333:jobs/1671543211799-abchg1",
            "id": "1671543211799-abchg1",
            "createdAt": 1715666761,
            "queue": "arn:aws:mediaconvert:us-west-2:111122223333:queues/Default",
            "status": "COMPLETE",
            "timing": {
                "submitTime": 1715666861,
                "startTime": 1715666863,
                "finishTime": 1715666900
            },
            "accelerationSettings": {
                "mode": "DISABLED"
            },
            "accelerationStatus": "NOT_APPLICABLE",
            "messages": {
                "info": [],
                "warning": []
            },
            "warnings": []
        }
    ]
}
