Disabling or removing outputs from a flow

You can disable or remove outputs that you added to the flow. If AWS Elemental MediaConnect generated the output as the result of an entitlement, you must revoke the entitlement.

Disabling an output stops the streaming of content to the output destination, but remains attached to the flow. A disabled output does not incur data transfer costs.

To disable an output (console)

1. Open the MediaConnect console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/mediaconnect/.

2. On the Flows page, choose the name of the flow that is associated with the output that you want to disable.

   The details page for that flow appears.

3. Choose the Outputs tab.

4. Choose the output, and then choose Update.

5. In the Update output window, use the Output status toggle to disable or enable the selected output.

6. Choose Save to save your changes.

To disable an output (AWS CLI)

• In the AWS CLI, use the update-flow-output command with the --output-status DISABLED option to disable the output. Alternately, you can use --output-status ENABLED to enable a disabled output.

  aws mediaconnect update-flow-output --flow-arn "arn:aws:mediaconnect:us-east-1:111122223333:flow:1-23aBC45dEF67hiJ8-12AbC34DE5fG:BasketballGame" --output-arn "arn:aws:mediaconnect:us-east-1:111122223333:output:2-3aBC45dEF67hiJ89-c34de5fG678h:Output1" --output-status DISABLED
  

  The following example shows the return value:

  {
      "FlowArn": "arn:aws:mediaconnect:us-east-1:111122223333:flow:1-23aBC45dEF67hiJ8-12AbC34DE5fG:BasketballGame",
      "Output": {
          "Destination": "192.0.2.12",
          "Name": "NYCOutput",
          "OutputArn": "arn:aws:mediaconnect:us-east-1:111122223333:output:2-3aBC45dEF67hiJ89-c34de5fG678h:NYCOutput",
          "OutputStatus": "DISABLED",
          "Port": 5020,
          "Transport": {
              "MinLatency": 1000,
              "Protocol": "rtp-fec"
          }
      }
  }
