aws cloudformation get-template-summary
Returns information about a new or existing template. The GetTemplateSummary action is useful for viewing parameter information, such as default parameter values and parameter types, before you create or update a stack or stack set. You can use the GetTemplateSummary action when you submit a template, or you can get template information for a stack set, or a running or deleted stack. For deleted stacks, GetTemplateSummary returns the template information for up to 90 days after the stack has been deleted. If the template does not exist, a ValidationError is returned
