Getting Outputs from aws cloudformation describe-stacks

Question

I am using the below to get the stack information I want via AWS Cli:

aws cloudformation --region ap-southeast-2 describe-stacks --stack-name mystack
         


        

Answer 1

Using the Windows AWS CLI I had to ensure the --query param was doubled quoted.

aws cloudformation describe-stacks --stack-name --query "Stacks[0].Outputs[?OutputKey==``].OutputValue" --output text

Failing to use double quotes, resulted in the query returning:

Stacks[0].Outputs[?OutputKey==].OutputValue

Not so helpful.
