search-data-sources

Description

Use the SearchDataSources operation to search for data sources that belong to an account.

See also: AWS API Documentation

search-data-sources is a paginated operation. Multiple API calls may be issued in order to retrieve the entire data set of results. You can disable pagination by providing the --no-paginate argument. When using --output text and the --query argument on a paginated response, the --query argument must extract data from the results of the following query expressions: DataSourceSummaries

Options

--aws-account-id (string)

The Amazon Web Services account ID.

--filters (list)

The filters to apply to the search.

(structure)

A filter that you apply when searching for data sources.

Operator -> (string)

The comparison operator that you want to use as a filter, for example "Operator": "StringEquals" . Valid values are "StringEquals" and "StringLike" .

If you set the operator value to "StringEquals" , you need to provide an ownership related filter in the "NAME" field and the arn of the user or group whose data sources you want to search in the "Value" field. For example, "Name":"DIRECT_QUICKSIGHT_OWNER", "Operator": "StringEquals", "Value": "arn:aws:quicksight:us-east-1:1:user/default/UserName1" .

If you set the value to "StringLike" , you need to provide the name of the data sources you are searching for. For example, "Name":"DATASOURCE_NAME", "Operator": "StringLike", "Value": "Test" . The "StringLike" operator only supports the NAME value DATASOURCE_NAME .

Name -> (string)

The name of the value that you want to use as a filter, for example, "Name": "DIRECT_QUICKSIGHT_OWNER" .

Valid values are defined as follows:

  • DIRECT_QUICKSIGHT_VIEWER_OR_OWNER : Provide an ARN of a user or group, and any data sources with that ARN listed as one of the owners or viewers of the data sources are returned. Implicit permissions from folders or groups are not considered.
  • DIRECT_QUICKSIGHT_OWNER : Provide an ARN of a user or group, and any data sources with that ARN listed as one of the owners if the data source are returned. Implicit permissions from folders or groups are not considered.
  • DIRECT_QUICKSIGHT_SOLE_OWNER : Provide an ARN of a user or group, and any data sources with that ARN listed as the only owner of the data source are returned. Implicit permissions from folders or groups are not considered.
  • DATASOURCE_NAME : Any data sources whose names have a substring match to the provided value are returned.

Value -> (string)

The value of the named item, for example DIRECT_QUICKSIGHT_OWNER , that you want to use as a filter, for example, "Value": "arn:aws:quicksight:us-east-1:1:user/default/UserName1" .

Shorthand Syntax:

Operator=string,Name=string,Value=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "Operator": "StringEquals"|"StringLike",
    "Name": "DIRECT_QUICKSIGHT_VIEWER_OR_OWNER"|"DIRECT_QUICKSIGHT_OWNER"|"DIRECT_QUICKSIGHT_SOLE_OWNER"|"DATASOURCE_NAME",
    "Value": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--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.

--starting-token (string)

A token to specify where to start paginating. This is the NextToken from a previously truncated response.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--page-size (integer)

The size of each page to get in the AWS service call. This does not affect the number of items returned in the command's output. Setting a smaller page size results in more calls to the AWS service, retrieving fewer items in each call. This can help prevent the AWS service calls from timing out.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--max-items (integer)

The total number of items to return in the command's output. If the total number of items available is more than the value specified, a NextToken is provided in the command's output. To resume pagination, provide the NextToken value in the starting-token argument of a subsequent command. Do not use the NextToken response element directly outside of the AWS CLI.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--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.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command's default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json
  • text
  • table

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.
