Options

--what-if-analysis-arn (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the what-if analysis that you are interested in.

--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.

--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.

Output

WhatIfAnalysisName -> (string)

The name of the what-if analysis.

WhatIfAnalysisArn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the what-if analysis.

ForecastArn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the what-if forecast.

EstimatedTimeRemainingInMinutes -> (long)

The approximate time remaining to complete the what-if analysis, in minutes.

Status -> (string)

The status of the what-if analysis. States include:

  • ACTIVE
  • CREATE_PENDING , CREATE_IN_PROGRESS , CREATE_FAILED
  • CREATE_STOPPING , CREATE_STOPPED
  • DELETE_PENDING , DELETE_IN_PROGRESS , DELETE_FAILED

Note

The Status of the what-if analysis must be ACTIVE before you can access the analysis.

Message -> (string)

If an error occurred, an informational message about the error.

CreationTime -> (timestamp)

When the what-if analysis was created.

LastModificationTime -> (timestamp)

The last time the resource was modified. The timestamp depends on the status of the job:

  • CREATE_PENDING - The CreationTime .
  • CREATE_IN_PROGRESS - The current timestamp.
  • CREATE_STOPPING - The current timestamp.
  • CREATE_STOPPED - When the job stopped.
  • ACTIVE or CREATE_FAILED - When the job finished or failed.

TimeSeriesSelector -> (structure)

Defines the set of time series that are used to create the forecasts in a TimeSeriesIdentifiers object.

The TimeSeriesIdentifiers object needs the following information:

  • DataSource
  • Format
  • Schema

TimeSeriesIdentifiers -> (structure)

Details about the import file that contains the time series for which you want to create forecasts.

DataSource -> (structure)

The source of your data, an Identity and Access Management (IAM) role that allows Amazon Forecast to access the data and, optionally, an Key Management Service (KMS) key.

S3Config -> (structure)

The path to the data stored in an Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) bucket along with the credentials to access the data.

Path -> (string)

The path to an Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) bucket or file(s) in an Amazon S3 bucket.

RoleArn -> (string)

The ARN of the Identity and Access Management (IAM) role that Amazon Forecast can assume to access the Amazon S3 bucket or files. If you provide a value for the KMSKeyArn key, the role must allow access to the key.

Passing a role across Amazon Web Services accounts is not allowed. If you pass a role that isn't in your account, you get an InvalidInputException error.

KMSKeyArn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an Key Management Service (KMS) key.

Schema -> (structure)

Defines the fields of a dataset.

Attributes -> (list)

An array of attributes specifying the name and type of each field in a dataset.

(structure)

An attribute of a schema, which defines a dataset field. A schema attribute is required for every field in a dataset. The Schema object contains an array of SchemaAttribute objects.

AttributeName -> (string)

The name of the dataset field.

AttributeType -> (string)

The data type of the field.

For a related time series dataset, other than date, item_id, and forecast dimensions attributes, all attributes should be of numerical type (integer/float).

Format -> (string)

The format of the data, either CSV or PARQUET.
