AWS Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose CLI Commands

12 CLI commands available for Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose.

CommandSample
create-delivery-stream

Creates a Firehose stream. By default, you can create up to 5,000 Firehose streams per Amazon Web Services Region. This is an asynchronous operation that immediately returns. The initial status of the Firehose stream is CREATING. After the Firehose stream is created, its status is ACTIVE and it now

delete-delivery-stream

Deletes a Firehose stream and its data. You can delete a Firehose stream only if it is in one of the following states: ACTIVE, DELETING, CREATING_FAILED, or DELETING_FAILED. You can't delete a Firehose stream that is in the CREATING state. To check the state of a Firehose stream, use DescribeDeliver

describe-delivery-stream

Describes the specified Firehose stream and its status. For example, after your Firehose stream is created, call DescribeDeliveryStream to see whether the Firehose stream is ACTIVE and therefore ready for data to be sent to it. If the status of a Firehose stream is CREATING_FAILED, this status does

list-delivery-streams

Lists your Firehose streams in alphabetical order of their names. The number of Firehose streams might be too large to return using a single call to ListDeliveryStreams. You can limit the number of Firehose streams returned, using the Limit parameter. To determine whether there are more delivery str

list-tags-for-delivery-stream

Lists the tags for the specified Firehose stream. This operation has a limit of five transactions per second per account.

put-record

Writes a single data record into an Firehose stream. To write multiple data records into a Firehose stream, use PutRecordBatch. Applications using these operations are referred to as producers. By default, each Firehose stream can take in up to 2,000 transactions per second, 5,000 records per second

put-record-batch

Writes multiple data records into a Firehose stream in a single call, which can achieve higher throughput per producer than when writing single records. To write single data records into a Firehose stream, use PutRecord. Applications using these operations are referred to as producers. Firehose accu

start-delivery-stream-encryption

Enables server-side encryption (SSE) for the Firehose stream. This operation is asynchronous. It returns immediately. When you invoke it, Firehose first sets the encryption status of the stream to ENABLING, and then to ENABLED. The encryption status of a Firehose stream is the Status property in De

stop-delivery-stream-encryption

Disables server-side encryption (SSE) for the Firehose stream. This operation is asynchronous. It returns immediately. When you invoke it, Firehose first sets the encryption status of the stream to DISABLING, and then to DISABLED. You can continue to read and write data to your stream while its sta

tag-delivery-stream

Adds or updates tags for the specified Firehose stream. A tag is a key-value pair that you can define and assign to Amazon Web Services resources. If you specify a tag that already exists, the tag value is replaced with the value that you specify in the request. Tags are metadata. For example, you c

untag-delivery-stream

Removes tags from the specified Firehose stream. Removed tags are deleted, and you can't recover them after this operation successfully completes. If you specify a tag that doesn't exist, the operation ignores it. This operation has a limit of five transactions per second per account.

update-destination

Updates the specified destination of the specified Firehose stream. Use this operation to change the destination type (for example, to replace the Amazon S3 destination with Amazon Redshift) or change the parameters associated with a destination (for example, to change the bucket name of the Amazon
