# Use `DescribeLifecycleHooks` with a CLI The following code examples show how to use `DescribeLifecycleHooks`. ------ #### [ CLI ] **AWS CLI** **To describe your lifecycle hooks** This example describes the lifecycle hooks for the specified Auto Scaling group. ``` aws autoscaling describe-lifecycle-hooks \ --auto-scaling-group-name my-asg ``` Output: ``` { "LifecycleHooks": [ { "GlobalTimeout": 3000, "HeartbeatTimeout": 30, "AutoScalingGroupName": "my-asg", "LifecycleHookName": "my-launch-hook", "DefaultResult": "ABANDON", "LifecycleTransition": "autoscaling:EC2_INSTANCE_LAUNCHING" }, { "GlobalTimeout": 6000, "HeartbeatTimeout": 60, "AutoScalingGroupName": "my-asg", "LifecycleHookName": "my-termination-hook", "DefaultResult": "CONTINUE", "LifecycleTransition": "autoscaling:EC2_INSTANCE_TERMINATING" } ] } ``` + For API details, see [DescribeLifecycleHooks](https://awscli.amazonaws.com/v2/documentation/api/latest/reference/autoscaling/describe-lifecycle-hooks.html) in *AWS CLI Command Reference*. ------ #### [ PowerShell ] **Tools for PowerShell V4** **Example 1: This example describes the specified lifecycle hook.** ``` Get-ASLifecycleHook -AutoScalingGroupName my-asg -LifecycleHookName myLifecycleHook ``` **Output:** ``` AutoScalingGroupName : my-asg DefaultResult : ABANDON GlobalTimeout : 172800 HeartbeatTimeout : 3600 LifecycleHookName : myLifecycleHook LifecycleTransition : auto-scaling:EC2_INSTANCE_LAUNCHING NotificationMetadata : NotificationTargetARN : arn:aws:sns:us-west-2:123456789012:my-topic RoleARN : arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/my-iam-role ``` **Example 2: This example describes all lifecycle hooks for the specified Auto Scaling group.** ``` Get-ASLifecycleHook -AutoScalingGroupName my-asg ``` **Example 3: This example describes all lifecycle hooks for all your Auto Scaling groups.** ``` Get-ASLifecycleHook ``` + For API details, see [DescribeLifecycleHooks](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/powershell/v4/reference) in *AWS Tools for PowerShell Cmdlet Reference (V4)*. **Tools for PowerShell V5** **Example 1: This example describes the specified lifecycle hook.** ``` Get-ASLifecycleHook -AutoScalingGroupName my-asg -LifecycleHookName myLifecycleHook ``` **Output:** ``` AutoScalingGroupName : my-asg DefaultResult : ABANDON GlobalTimeout : 172800 HeartbeatTimeout : 3600 LifecycleHookName : myLifecycleHook LifecycleTransition : auto-scaling:EC2_INSTANCE_LAUNCHING NotificationMetadata : NotificationTargetARN : arn:aws:sns:us-west-2:123456789012:my-topic RoleARN : arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/my-iam-role ``` **Example 2: This example describes all lifecycle hooks for the specified Auto Scaling group.** ``` Get-ASLifecycleHook -AutoScalingGroupName my-asg ``` **Example 3: This example describes all lifecycle hooks for all your Auto Scaling groups.** ``` Get-ASLifecycleHook ``` + For API details, see [DescribeLifecycleHooks](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/powershell/v5/reference) in *AWS Tools for PowerShell Cmdlet Reference (V5)*. ------ For a complete list of AWS SDK developer guides and code examples, see [Using this service with an AWS SDK](sdk-general-information-section.md).
