Use DescribeFlowLogs with a CLI

Example 1: To describe all of your flow logs

The following describe-flow-logs example displays details for all of your flow logs.

aws ec2 describe-flow-logs

Output:

{
    "FlowLogs": [
        {
            "CreationTime": "2018-02-21T13:22:12.644Z",
            "DeliverLogsPermissionArn": "arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/flow-logs-role",
            "DeliverLogsStatus": "SUCCESS",
            "FlowLogId": "fl-aabbccdd112233445",
            "MaxAggregationInterval": 600,
            "FlowLogStatus": "ACTIVE",
            "LogGroupName": "FlowLogGroup",
            "ResourceId": "subnet-12345678901234567",
            "TrafficType": "ALL",
            "LogDestinationType": "cloud-watch-logs",
            "LogFormat": "${version} ${account-id} ${interface-id} ${srcaddr} ${dstaddr} ${srcport} ${dstport} ${protocol} ${packets} ${bytes} ${start} ${end} ${action} ${log-status}"
        },
        {
            "CreationTime": "2020-02-04T15:22:29.986Z",
            "DeliverLogsStatus": "SUCCESS",
            "FlowLogId": "fl-01234567890123456",
            "MaxAggregationInterval": 60,
            "FlowLogStatus": "ACTIVE",
            "ResourceId": "vpc-00112233445566778",
            "TrafficType": "ACCEPT",
            "LogDestinationType": "s3",
            "LogDestination": "arn:aws:s3:::my-flow-log-bucket/custom",
            "LogFormat": "${version} ${vpc-id} ${subnet-id} ${instance-id} ${interface-id} ${account-id} ${type} ${srcaddr} ${dstaddr} ${srcport} ${dstport} ${pkt-srcaddr} ${pkt-dstaddr} ${protocol} ${bytes} ${packets} ${start} ${end} ${action} ${tcp-flags} ${log-status}"
        }
    ]
}

Example 2: To describe a subset of your flow logs

The following describe-flow-logs example uses a filter to display details for only those flow logs that are in the specified log group in Amazon CloudWatch Logs.

aws ec2 describe-flow-logs \
    --filter "Name=log-group-name,Values=MyFlowLogs"

Example 1: This example describes one or more flow logs with log destination type 's3'

Get-EC2FlowLog -Filter @{Name="log-destination-type";Values="s3"}

Output:

CreationTime             : 2/25/2019 9:07:36 PM

DeliverLogsStatus        : SUCCESS
