## Return values
<a name="aws-resource-mediaconnect-bridgesource-return-values"></a>

### Ref
<a name="aws-resource-mediaconnect-bridgesource-return-values-ref"></a>

When you pass the logical ID of this resource to the intrinsic `Ref` function, `Ref` returns the bridge ARN and bridge name. For example:

 `{ "Ref": "arn:aws:mediaconnect:us-east-1:111122223333:bridge:1-23aBC45dEF67hiJ8-12AbC34DE5fG:BasketballArenaIngress|Source:PrimarySource1" }` 

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