-ShardFilter_ShardId <String>
-StreamARN <String>
-StreamCreationTimestamp <DateTime>
-ShardFilter_Timestamp <DateTime>
-ShardFilter_Type <ShardFilterType>

Description

Lists the shards in a stream and provides information about each shard. This operation has a limit of 1000 transactions per second per data stream. When invoking this API, you must use either the StreamARN or the StreamName parameter, or both. It is recommended that you use the StreamARN input parameter when you invoke this API. This action does not list expired shards. For information about expired shards, see Data Routing, Data Persistence, and Shard State after a Reshard. This API is a new operation that is used by the Amazon Kinesis Client Library (KCL). If you have a fine-grained IAM policy that only allows specific operations, you must update your policy to allow calls to this API. For more information, see Controlling Access to Amazon Kinesis Data Streams Resources Using IAM.

This cmdlet automatically pages all available results to the pipeline - parameters related to iteration are only needed if you want to manually control the paginated output. To disable autopagination, use -NoAutoIteration.

Parameters

-ClientConfig <AmazonKinesisConfig>
Amazon.PowerShell.Cmdlets.KIN.AmazonKinesisClientCmdlet.ClientConfig
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-ExclusiveStartShardId <String>
Specify this parameter to indicate that you want to list the shards starting with the shard whose ID immediately follows ExclusiveStartShardId.If you don't specify this parameter, the default behavior is for ListShards to list the shards starting with the first one in the stream.You cannot specify this parameter if you specify NextToken.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-MaxResult <Int32>
The maximum number of shards to return in a single call to ListShards. The maximum number of shards to return in a single call. The default value is 1000. If you specify a value greater than 1000, at most 1000 results are returned. When the number of shards to be listed is greater than the value of MaxResults, the response contains a NextToken value that you can use in a subsequent call to ListShards to list the next set of shards.
Note: In AWSPowerShell and AWSPowerShell.NetCore this parameter is used to limit the total number of items returned by the cmdlet.
In AWS.Tools this parameter is simply passed to the service to specify how many items should be returned by each service call.
Pipe the output of this cmdlet into Select-Object -First to terminate retrieving data pages early and control the number of items returned.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesMaxItems, MaxResults
-NextToken <String>
When the number of shards in the data stream is greater than the default value for the MaxResults parameter, or if you explicitly specify a value for MaxResults that is less than the number of shards in the data stream, the response includes a pagination token named NextToken. You can specify this NextToken value in a subsequent call to ListShards to list the next set of shards.Don't specify StreamName or StreamCreationTimestamp if you specify NextToken because the latter unambiguously identifies the stream.You can optionally specify a value for the MaxResults parameter when you specify NextToken. If you specify a MaxResults value that is less than the number of shards that the operation returns if you don't specify MaxResults, the response will contain a new NextToken value. You can use the new NextToken value in a subsequent call to the ListShards operation.Tokens expire after 300 seconds. When you obtain a value for NextToken in the response to a call to ListShards, you have 300 seconds to use that value. If you specify an expired token in a call to ListShards, you get ExpiredNextTokenException.
Note: This parameter is only used if you are manually controlling output pagination of the service API call.
'NextToken' is only returned by the cmdlet when '-Select *' is specified. In order to manually control output pagination, set '-NextToken' to null for the first call then set the 'NextToken' using the same property output from the previous call for subsequent calls.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-NoAutoIteration <SwitchParameter>
By default the cmdlet will auto-iterate and retrieve all results to the pipeline by performing multiple service calls. If set, the cmdlet will retrieve only the next 'page' of results using the value of NextToken as the start point.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-PassThru <SwitchParameter>
Changes the cmdlet behavior to return the value passed to the StreamName parameter. The -PassThru parameter is deprecated, use -Select '^StreamName' instead. This parameter will be removed in a future version.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Select <String>
Use the -Select parameter to control the cmdlet output. The default value is 'Shards'. Specifying -Select '*' will result in the cmdlet returning the whole service response (Amazon.Kinesis.Model.ListShardsResponse). Specifying the name of a property of type Amazon.Kinesis.Model.ListShardsResponse will result in that property being returned. Specifying -Select '^ParameterName' will result in the cmdlet returning the selected cmdlet parameter value.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-ShardFilter_ShardId <String>
The exclusive start shardID speified in the ShardFilter parameter. This property can only be used if the AFTER_SHARD_ID shard type is specified.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-ShardFilter_Timestamp <DateTime>
The timestamps specified in the ShardFilter parameter. A timestamp is a Unix epoch date with precision in milliseconds. For example, 2016-04-04T19:58:46.480-00:00 or 1459799926.480. This property can only be used if FROM_TIMESTAMP or AT_TIMESTAMP shard types are specified.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-ShardFilter_Type <ShardFilterType>
The shard type specified in the ShardFilter parameter. This is a required property of the ShardFilter parameter.You can specify the following valid values:
  • AFTER_SHARD_ID - the response includes all the shards, starting with the shard whose ID immediately follows the ShardId that you provided.
  • AT_TRIM_HORIZON - the response includes all the shards that were open at TRIM_HORIZON.
  • FROM_TRIM_HORIZON - (default), the response includes all the shards within the retention period of the data stream (trim to tip).
  • AT_LATEST - the response includes only the currently open shards of the data stream.
  • AT_TIMESTAMP - the response includes all shards whose start timestamp is less than or equal to the given timestamp and end timestamp is greater than or equal to the given timestamp or still open.
  • FROM_TIMESTAMP - the response incldues all closed shards whose end timestamp is greater than or equal to the given timestamp and also all open shards. Corrected to TRIM_HORIZON of the data stream if FROM_TIMESTAMP is less than the TRIM_HORIZON value.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-StreamARN <String>
The ARN of the stream.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-StreamCreationTimestamp <DateTime>
Specify this input parameter to distinguish data streams that have the same name. For example, if you create a data stream and then delete it, and you later create another data stream with the same name, you can use this input parameter to specify which of the two streams you want to list the shards for.You cannot specify this parameter if you specify the NextToken parameter.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-StreamName <String>
The name of the data stream whose shards you want to list. You cannot specify this parameter if you specify the NextToken parameter.
Required?False
