DESCRIPTION

ARGUMENTS

        ActivityIds
           Optional list of activities to be described.                        If

           The list of requested activities cannot contain more than 50 items.
                           If an Auto Scaling group name is provided, the results
           are limited to that group.                       If unknown activities
           are requested, they are ignored with no error.

SPECIFIC OPTIONS

        -g, --auto-scaling-group VALUE
           Optional.  Name of an Auto Scaling group by which to filter the request.

        --max-records VALUE
           Maximum number of activities that will be described with each call
           (default = 20, max = 50).

GENERAL OPTIONS

        --aws-credential-file VALUE
           Location of the file with your AWS credentials. This value can be set by
           using the environment variable 'AWS_CREDENTIAL_FILE'.

        -C, --ec2-cert-file-path VALUE
           Path to the file holding the X.509 certificate. This value can be set by
           using the environment variable 'EC2_CERT'.

           Connection timeout (in seconds). The default value is '30'.

           The delimiter to use when displaying delimited (long) results.

        -H, --headers
           For displaying tabular or delimited results, it includes the column
           headers. For displaying XML results, it returns the HTTP headers from the
           service request, if applicable. This is off by default.

        -I, --access-key-id VALUE
           The AWS access ID to use.

        -K, --ec2-private-key-file-path VALUE

           value is 'false'.

        --show-table, --show-long, --show-xml, --quiet
           The way in which the results are displayed: tabular, delimited (long),
           XML or no output (quiet). Tabular shows a subset of the data in fixed
           column-width form, while long shows all of the returned values delimited
           by a character, XML is the raw return from the service and quiet
           suppresses all standard output. The default is tabular, or 'show-table'.

        -U, --url VALUE
           This option will override the URL for the service call with VALUE. This
           value can be set by using the environment variable
