---|---|
--stack-id <string> | A stack ID. If you use this parameter, DescribeInstances returns descriptions of the instances associated with the specified stack |
--layer-id <string> | A layer ID. If you use this parameter, DescribeInstances returns descriptions of the instances associated with the specified layer |

--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 |
--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 |
