New Features
| Change | Description |
|---|---|
| Amazon Elastic Transcoder | Support added for audio transcoding features in Amazon Elastic Transcoder. |
| Improved text output |
The output text formatter has been updated to provide a consistent output structure: IDENTIFIER sorted-column1 sorted-column2 IDENTIFIER2 sorted-column1 sorted-column2 |
| Add --query argument |
A new argument has been added that allows you to specify an expression that will extract data out of a response, allowing you to customize the output: $ aws ec2 describe-instances --output table \ --query 'Reservations[*].Instances[*].[InstanceId,InstanceType,Placement.AvailabilityZone,State.Name]' ------------------------------------------------------ | DescribeInstances | +------------+-------------+--------------+----------+ | i-12345678| t1.micro | us-west-2a | running | | i-12345678| c1.medium | us-west-2b | running | | i-12345678| m1.large | us-west-2a | running | +------------+-------------+--------------+----------+ For more information about the supported query expressions, you can go here. |
