### Fn::GetAtt
<a name="aws-resource-ec2-routetable-return-values-fn--getatt"></a>

The `Fn::GetAtt` intrinsic function returns a value for a specified attribute of this type. The following are the available attributes and sample return values.

For more information about using the `Fn::GetAtt` intrinsic function, see [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/intrinsic-function-reference-getatt.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/intrinsic-function-reference-getatt.html).

```
"myRouteTable" : {
   "Type" : "AWS::EC2::RouteTable",
   "Properties" : {
      "VpcId" : { "Ref" : "myVPC" },
      "Tags" : [ { "Key" : "stack", "Value" : "production" } ]
   }
