Options¶

--workload-id (string)

The ID assigned to the workload. This ID is unique within an Amazon Web Services Region.

--lens-alias (string)

The alias of the lens.

For Amazon Web Services official lenses, this is either the lens alias, such as serverless , or the lens ARN, such as arn:aws:wellarchitected:us-east-1::lens/serverless . Note that some operations (such as ExportLens and CreateLensShare) are not permitted on Amazon Web Services official lenses.

For custom lenses, this is the lens ARN, such as arn:aws:wellarchitected:us-west-2:123456789012:lens/0123456789abcdef01234567890abcdef .

Each lens is identified by its LensSummary$LensAlias .

--question-id (string)

The ID of the question.

--milestone-number (integer)

The milestone number.

A workload can have a maximum of 100 milestones.

--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.
