Options

--group-name (string)

Don't use this parameter. Use Group instead.

--group (string)

The name or the ARN of the resource group to query.

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI 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.

--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. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

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.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json
  • text
  • table

--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.

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 .

To get the query attached to a resource group

The following get-group-query example displays query attached to the specified resource group.

aws resource-groups get-group-query \
    --group-name tbq-WebServer

Output:

{
    "GroupQuery": {
        "GroupName": "tbq-WebServer",
        "ResourceQuery": {
            "Type": "TAG_FILTERS_1_0",
            "Query": "{\"ResourceTypeFilters\":[\"AWS::EC2::Instance\"],\"TagFilters\":[{\"Key\":\"Name\", \"Values\":[\"WebServers\"]}]}"
        }
    }
}

Output

GroupQuery -> (structure)

The resource query associated with the specified group. For more information about resource queries, see Create a tag-based group in Resource Groups .

GroupName -> (string)

The name of the resource group that is associated with the specified resource query.

ResourceQuery -> (structure)

The resource query that determines which Amazon Web Services resources are members of the associated resource group.

Type -> (string)

The type of the query to perform. This can have one of two values:

  • *CLOUDFORMATION_STACK_1_0: * Specifies that you want the group to contain the members of an CloudFormation stack. The Query contains a StackIdentifier element with an ARN for a CloudFormation stack.
  • *TAG_FILTERS_1_0: * Specifies that you want the group to include resource that have tags that match the query.

Query -> (string)

The query that defines a group or a search. The contents depends on the value of the Type element.

  • ResourceTypeFilters – Applies to all ResourceQuery objects of either Type . This element contains one of the following two items:
    • The value AWS::AllSupported . This causes the ResourceQuery to match resources of any resource type that also match the query.
    • A list (a JSON array) of resource type identifiers that limit the query to only resources of the specified types. For the complete list of resource types that you can use in the array value for ResourceTypeFilters , see Resources you can use with Resource Groups and Tag Editor in the Resource Groups User Guide .

Example: "ResourceTypeFilters": ["AWS::AllSupported"] or "ResourceTypeFilters": ["AWS::EC2::Instance", "AWS::S3::Bucket"]

  • TagFilters – applicable only if Type = TAG_FILTERS_1_0 . The Query contains a JSON string that represents a collection of simple tag filters. The JSON string uses a syntax similar to the `` GetResources `` operation, but uses only the `` ResourceTypeFilters `` and `` TagFilters `` fields. If you specify more than one tag key, only resources that match all tag keys, and at least one value of each specified tag key, are returned in your query. If you specify more than one value for a tag key, a resource matches the filter if it has a tag key value that matches any of the specified values. For example, consider the following sample query for resources that have two tags, Stage and Version , with two values each: [{"Stage":["Test","Deploy"]},{"Version":["1","2"]}] The results of this resource query could include the following.
    • An Amazon EC2 instance that has the following two tags: {"Stage":"Deploy"} , and {"Version":"2"}
    • An S3 bucket that has the following two tags: {"Stage":"Test"} , and {"Version":"1"}

The resource query results would not include the following items in the results, however.

  • An Amazon EC2 instance that has only the following tag: {"Stage":"Deploy"} . The instance does not have all of the tag keys specified in the filter, so it is excluded from the results.
  • An RDS database that has the following two tags: {"Stage":"Archived"} and {"Version":"4"} The database has all of the tag keys, but none of those keys has an associated value that matches at least one of the specified values in the filter.

Example: "TagFilters": [ { "Key": "Stage", "Values": [ "Gamma", "Beta" ] }

  • StackIdentifier – applicable only if Type = CLOUDFORMATION_STACK_1_0 . The value of this parameter is the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the CloudFormation stack whose resources you want included in the group.
