[ aws . route53 ]

list-hosted-zones

Description

Retrieves a list of the public and private hosted zones that are associated with the current Amazon Web Services account. The response includes a HostedZones child element for each hosted zone.

Amazon Route 53 returns a maximum of 100 items in each response. If you have a lot of hosted zones, you can use the maxitems parameter to list them in groups of up to 100.

See also: AWS API Documentation

list-hosted-zones is a paginated operation. Multiple API calls may be issued in order to retrieve the entire data set of results. You can disable pagination by providing the --no-paginate argument. When using --output text and the --query argument on a paginated response, the --query argument must extract data from the results of the following query expressions: HostedZones

Options

--max-items (string)

The total number of items to return in the command's output. If the total number of items available is more than the value specified, a NextToken is provided in the command's output. To resume pagination, provide the NextToken value in the starting-token argument of a subsequent command. Do not use the NextToken response element directly outside of the AWS CLI.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--delegation-set-id (string)

If you're using reusable delegation sets and you want to list all of the hosted zones that are associated with a reusable delegation set, specify the ID of that reusable delegation set.

--hosted-zone-type (string)

(Optional) Specifies if the hosted zone is private.

Possible values:

  • PrivateHostedZone

--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.

--starting-token (string)

A token to specify where to start paginating. This is the NextToken from a previously truncated response.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--page-size (string)

The size of each page to get in the AWS service call. This does not affect the number of items returned in the command's output. Setting a smaller page size results in more calls to the AWS service, retrieving fewer items in each call. This can help prevent the AWS service calls from timing out.

For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide .

--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.

Global Options

--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.

  • json
  • text
  • table

--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.

  • on
  • off
  • auto

--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.

Examples

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal's quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To list the hosted zones associated with the current AWS account

The following list-hosted-zones command lists summary information about the first 100 hosted zones that are associated with the current AWS account.:

aws route53 list-hosted-zones

If you have more than 100 hosted zones, or if you want to list them in groups smaller than 100, include the --max-items parameter. For example, to list hosted zones one at a time, use the following command:

aws route53 list-hosted-zones --max-items 1

To view information about the next hosted zone, take the value of NextToken from the response to the previous command, and include it in the --starting-token parameter, for example:

aws route53 list-hosted-zones --max-items 1 --starting-token Z3M3LMPEXAMPLE

Output

HostedZones -> (list)

A complex type that contains general information about the hosted zone.

A complex type that contains general information about the hosted zone.

Id -> (string)

The ID that Amazon Route 53 assigned to the hosted zone when you created it.

Name -> (string)

The name of the domain. For public hosted zones, this is the name that you have registered with your DNS registrar.

CallerReference -> (string)

The value that you specified for CallerReference when you created the hosted zone.

Config -> (structure)

A complex type that includes the Comment and PrivateZone elements. If you omitted the HostedZoneConfig and Comment elements from the request, the Config and Comment elements don't appear in the response.

Comment -> (string)

Any comments that you want to include about the hosted zone.

PrivateZone -> (boolean)

A value that indicates whether this is a private hosted zone.

ResourceRecordSetCount -> (long)

The number of resource record sets in the hosted zone.

LinkedService -> (structure)

If the hosted zone was created by another service, the service that created the hosted zone. When a hosted zone is created by another service, you can't edit or delete it using Route 53.

ServicePrincipal -> (string)

If the health check or hosted zone was created by another service, the service that created the resource. When a resource is created by another service, you can't edit or delete it using Amazon Route 53.

Description -> (string)

If the health check or hosted zone was created by another service, an optional description that can be provided by the other service. When a resource is created by another service, you can't edit or delete it using Amazon Route 53.

Marker -> (string)

For the second and subsequent calls to ListHostedZones , Marker is the value that you specified for the marker parameter in the request that produced the current response.

IsTruncated -> (boolean)

A flag indicating whether there are more hosted zones to be listed. If the response was truncated, you can get more hosted zones by submitting another ListHostedZones request and specifying the value of NextMarker in the marker parameter.

NextMarker -> (string)

If IsTruncated is true , the value of NextMarker identifies the first hosted zone in the next group of hosted zones. Submit another ListHostedZones request, and specify the value of NextMarker from the response in the marker parameter.

This element is present only if IsTruncated is true .

MaxItems -> (string)

The value that you specified for the maxitems parameter in the call to ListHostedZones that produced the current response.
