Viewing the details of a flow - AWS Elemental MediaConnect

Viewing the details of a flow

You can view a flow's details, such as ARN, Availability Zone, status, source, entitlements, and outputs.

To view the details of a flow (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 you want to view.

    The details page for that flow appears. This page is divided into the following tabs:

    • The Source tab shows details about the source for this flow, including an indication of whether the flow is connected to the source.

    • The Outputs tab shows details for each output that you created for this flow.

    • The Entitlements tab shows any entitlements that you have granted on this flow.

    • The VPC interfaces tab shows a list of connections that this flow has with virtual private clouds (VPCs) based on the Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) service.

    • The Media streams tab shows a list of media streams that have been created on this flow. Each media stream represents a different component of a video such as video, audio, ancillary data.

    • The Alerts tab shows a log of active alerts on this flow.

To view the details of a flow (AWS CLI)

  • In the AWS CLI, use the describe-flow command:

    aws mediaconnect describe-flow --flow-arn arn:aws:mediaconnect:us-east-1:111122223333:flow:1-23aBC45dEF67hiJ8-12AbC34DE5fG:AwardsShow
