--backend-environment-arn (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for a backend environment that is part of a Gen 1 Amplify app.

This field is available to Amplify Gen 1 apps only where the backend is created using Amplify Studio or the Amplify command line interface (CLI).

--backend (structure)

This field is available to Amplify Gen 2 apps only. When you deploy an application with Amplify Gen 2, you provision the app's backend infrastructure using Typescript code.

stackArn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the CloudFormation stack.

Shorthand Syntax:

stackArn=string

JSON Syntax:

{
  "stackArn": "string"
}

--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.
