--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.
See 'aws help' for descriptions of global parameters.
To tag a CloudFront distribution
The following tag-resource
example adds two tags to the specified CloudFront distribution.
aws cloudfront tag-resource \
--resource arn:aws:cloudfront::123456789012:distribution/EDFDVBD6EXAMPLE \
--tags 'Items=[{Key=Name,Value="Example name"},{Key=Project,Value="Example project"}]'
Instead of using command line arguments, you can provide the tags in a JSON file, as shown in the following example:
aws cloudfront tag-resource \
--resource arn:aws:cloudfront::123456789012:distribution/EDFDVBD6EXAMPLE \
--tags file://tags.json
Contents of tags.json
:
{
"Items": [
{
"Key": "Name",
"Value": "Example name"
},
{
"Key": "Project",
"Value": "Example project"
}
]
}
