# Use `DescribeTargetGroupAttributes` with a CLI
<a name="elastic-load-balancing-v2_example_elastic-load-balancing-v2_DescribeTargetGroupAttributes_section"></a>

The following code examples show how to use `DescribeTargetGroupAttributes`.

------
#### [ CLI ]

**AWS CLI**  
**To describe target group attributes**  
The following `describe-target-group-attributes` example displays the attributes of the specified target group.  

```
aws elbv2 describe-target-group-attributes \
    --target-group-arn {{arn:aws:elasticloadbalancing:us-west-2:123456789012:targetgroup/my-targets/73e2d6bc24d8a067}}
```
The output includes the attributes if the protocol is HTTP or HTTPS and the target type is `instance` or `ip`.  

```
{
    "Attributes": [
        {
            "Value": "false",
            "Key": "stickiness.enabled"
        },
        {
            "Value": "300",
            "Key": "deregistration_delay.timeout_seconds"
        },
        {
            "Value": "lb_cookie",
            "Key": "stickiness.type"
        },
        {
            "Value": "86400",
            "Key": "stickiness.lb_cookie.duration_seconds"
        },
        {
            "Value": "0",
            "Key": "slow_start.duration_seconds"
        }
    ]
}
```
The following output includes the attributes if the protocol is HTTP or HTTPS and the target type is `lambda`.  

```
{
    "Attributes": [
        {
            "Value": "false",
            "Key": "lambda.multi_value_headers.enabled"
        }
    ]
}
```
The following output includes the attributes if the protocol is TCP, TLS, UDP, or TCP\_UDP.  

```
{
    "Attributes": [
        {
            "Value": "false",
            "Key": "proxy_protocol_v2.enabled"
        },
        {
            "Value": "300",
            "Key": "deregistration_delay.timeout_seconds"
        }
    ]
}
```

#### [ PowerShell ]

**Tools for PowerShell V4**  
**Example 1: This example describes the attributes of the specified Target Group.**  

```
Get-ELB2TargetGroupAttribute -TargetGroupArn 'arn:aws:elasticloadbalancing:us-east-1:123456789012:targetgroup/test-tg/a4e04b3688be1970'
```
**Output:**  

```
Key                                   Value
---                                   -----
stickiness.enabled                    false
deregistration_delay.timeout_seconds  300
stickiness.type                       lb_cookie
stickiness.lb_cookie.duration_seconds 86400
slow_start.duration_seconds           0
load_balancing.algorithm.type         round_robin
```

**Tools for PowerShell V5**  
**Example 1: This example describes the attributes of the specified Target Group.**  

```
Get-ELB2TargetGroupAttribute -TargetGroupArn 'arn:aws:elasticloadbalancing:us-east-1:123456789012:targetgroup/test-tg/a4e04b3688be1970'
```
**Output:**  

```
