aws cloudwatch describe-alarm-history
Retrieves the history for the specified alarm. You can filter the results by date range or item type. If an alarm name is not specified, the histories for either all metric alarms or all composite alarms are returned. CloudWatch retains the history of an alarm even if you delete the alarm
Options
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
--alarm-name <string> | The name of the alarm |
--alarm-types <list...> | Use this parameter to specify whether you want the operation to return metric alarms or composite alarms. If you omit this parameter, only metric alarms are returned |
--history-item-type <string> | The type of alarm histories to retrieve |
--start-date <timestamp> | The starting date to retrieve alarm history |
--end-date <timestamp> | The ending date to retrieve alarm history |
--max-records <integer> | The maximum number of alarm history records to retrieve |
--next-token <string> | The token returned by a previous call to indicate that there is more data available |
--scan-by <string> | Specified whether to return the newest or oldest alarm history first. Specify TimestampDescending to have the newest event history returned first, and specify TimestampAscending to have the oldest history returned first |
--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 |
