We announced the upcoming end-of-support for the AWS CLI v1. For dates, additional details, and information on how to migrate, please refer to the linked announcement. For more information see the AWS CLI version 2 installation instructions and migration guide.
Returns detailed information for a specific data table attribute including its configuration, validation rules, and metadata. “Describe” is a deprecated term but is allowed to maintain consistency with existing operations.

--instance-id (string)
The unique identifier for the Amazon Connect instance.
--data-table-id (string)
The unique identifier for the data table. Must also accept the table ARN with or without a version alias.
--attribute-name (string)
The name of the attribute to retrieve detailed information for.
--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.
--debug (boolean)
Turn on debug logging.
--endpoint-url (string)
Override command’s default URL with the given URL.
--no-verify-ssl (boolean)
By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.
--no-paginate (boolean)
Disable automatic pagination. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.
--output (string)
The formatting style for command output.
--query (string)
A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.
--profile (string)
Use a specific profile from your credential file.
--region (string)
The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.
--version (string)
Display the version of this tool.
--color (string)
Turn on/off color output.
--no-sign-request (boolean)
Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.
--ca-bundle (string)
The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.
--cli-read-timeout (int)
The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.
--cli-connect-timeout (int)
The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.
--v2-debug (boolean)
Enable AWS CLI v2 migration assistance. Prints warnings if the command would face a breaking change after swapping AWS CLI v1 for AWS CLI v2 in the current environment. Prints one warning for each breaking change detected.
Attribute -> (structure)
The complete attribute information including configuration, validation rules, lock version, and metadata.
AttributeId -> (string)
The unique identifier for the attribute within the data table.Name -> (string)
The human-readable name of the attribute. Must be unique within the data table and conform to Connect naming standards.ValueType -> (string)
The type of value allowed for this attribute. Must be one of TEXT, TEXT_LIST, NUMBER, NUMBER_LIST, or BOOLEAN. Determines how values are validated and processed.Description -> (string)
An optional description explaining the purpose and usage of this attribute.DataTableId -> (string)
The unique identifier of the data table that contains this attribute.DataTableArn -> (string)
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the data table that contains this attribute.Primary -> (boolean)
Boolean indicating whether this attribute is used as a primary key for record identification. Primary attributes must have unique value combinations and cannot contain expressions.Version -> (string)
The version identifier for this attribute, used for versioning and change tracking.LockVersion -> (structure)
The lock version for this attribute, used for optimistic locking to prevent concurrent modification conflicts.
DataTable -> (string)
The lock version for the data table itself. Used for optimistic locking and table versioning. Changes with each update to the table’s metadata or structure.Attribute -> (string)
The lock version for a specific attribute. When the ValueLockLevel is ATTRIBUTE, this version changes when any value for the attribute changes. For other lock levels, it only changes when the attribute’s properties are directly updated.PrimaryValues -> (string)
The lock version for a specific set of primary values (record). This includes the default record even if the table does not have any primary attributes. Used for record-level locking.Value -> (string)
The lock version for a specific value. Changes each time the individual value is modified. Used for the finest-grained locking control.LastModifiedTime -> (timestamp)
The timestamp when this attribute was last modified.LastModifiedRegion -> (string)
The Amazon Web Services Region where this attribute was last modified, used for region replication.Validation -> (structure)
The validation rules applied to values of this attribute. Based on JSON Schema Draft 2020-12 with additional Connect-specific validations for data integrity.
MinLength -> (integer)
The minimum number of characters a text value can contain. Applies to TEXT value type and values within a TEXT_LIST. Must be less than or equal to MaxLength.MaxLength -> (integer)
The maximum number of characters a text value can contain. Applies to TEXT value type and values within a TEXT_LIST. Must be greater than or equal to MinLength.MinValues -> (integer)
The minimum number of values in a list. Must be an integer greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to MaxValues. Applies to all list types.MaxValues -> (integer)
The maximum number of values in a list. Must be an integer greater than or equal to 0 and greater than or equal to MinValues. Applies to all list types.IgnoreCase -> (boolean)
Boolean that defaults to false. Applies to text lists and text primary attributes. When true, enforces case-insensitive uniqueness for primary attributes and allows case-insensitive lookups.Minimum -> (double)
The smallest inclusive numeric value for NUMBER value type. Cannot be provided when ExclusiveMinimum is also provided. Must be less than or equal to Maximum and less than ExclusiveMaximum. Applies to NUMBER and values within NUMBER_LIST.Maximum -> (double)
The largest inclusive numeric value for NUMBER value type. Can be provided alongside ExclusiveMaximum where both operate independently. Must be greater than or equal to Minimum and greater than ExclusiveMinimum. Applies to NUMBER and values within NUMBER_LIST.ExclusiveMinimum -> (double)
The smallest exclusive numeric value for NUMBER value type. Can be provided alongside Minimum where both operate independently. Must be less than ExclusiveMaximum and Maximum. Applies to NUMBER and values within NUMBER_LIST.ExclusiveMaximum -> (double)
The largest exclusive numeric value for NUMBER value type. Can be provided alongside Maximum where both operate independently. Must be greater than ExclusiveMinimum and Minimum. Applies to NUMBER and values within NUMBER_LIST.MultipleOf -> (double)
Specifies that numeric values must be multiples of this number. Must be greater than 0. The result of dividing a value by this multiple must result in an integer. Applies to NUMBER and values within NUMBER_LIST.Enum -> (structure)
Defines enumeration constraints for attribute values. Can specify a list of allowed values and whether custom values are permitted beyond the enumerated list.
Strict -> (boolean)
Boolean that defaults to false. When true, only values specified in the enum list are allowed. When false, custom values beyond the enumerated list are permitted.Values -> (list)
A list of predefined values that are allowed for this attribute. These values are always permitted regardless of the Strict setting.
