aws stepfunctions start-sync-execution

Starts a Synchronous Express state machine execution

Options

NameDescription
--state-machine-arn <string>The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the state machine to execute
--name <string>The name of the execution
--input <string>The string that contains the JSON input data for the execution, for example: "input": "{\"first_name\" : \"test\"}" If you don't include any JSON input data, you still must include the two braces, for example: "input": "{}" Length constraints apply to the payload size, and are expressed as bytes in UTF-8 encoding
--trace-header <string>Passes the AWS X-Ray trace header. The trace header can also be passed in the request payload
--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
