Options

--description (string)

A short text description of the tunnel.

--tags (list)

A collection of tag metadata.

(structure)

An arbitary key/value pair used to add searchable metadata to secure tunnel resources.

key -> (string)

The key of the tag.

value -> (string)

The value of the tag.

Shorthand Syntax:

key=string,value=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "key": "string",
    "value": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--destination-config (structure)

The destination configuration for the OpenTunnel request.

thingName -> (string)

The name of the IoT thing to which you want to connect.

services -> (list)

A list of service names that identify the target application. The IoT client running on the destination device reads this value and uses it to look up a port or an IP address and a port. The IoT client instantiates the local proxy, which uses this information to connect to the destination application.

(string)

Shorthand Syntax:

thingName=string,services=string,string

JSON Syntax:

{
  "thingName": "string",
  "services": ["string", ...]
}

--timeout-config (structure)

Timeout configuration for a tunnel.

maxLifetimeTimeoutMinutes -> (integer)

The maximum amount of time (in minutes) a tunnel can remain open. If not specified, maxLifetimeTimeoutMinutes defaults to 720 minutes. Valid values are from 1 minute to 12 hours (720 minutes)

Shorthand Syntax:

maxLifetimeTimeoutMinutes=integer

JSON Syntax:

{
  "maxLifetimeTimeoutMinutes": integer
}

--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. 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

--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.

Output

tunnelId -> (string)

A unique alpha-numeric tunnel ID.

tunnelArn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name for the tunnel.

sourceAccessToken -> (string)

The access token the source local proxy uses to connect to IoT Secure Tunneling.

destinationAccessToken -> (string)

The access token the destination local proxy uses to connect to IoT Secure Tunneling.
