**Example 1: To describe all capacity providers** The following ``describe-capacity-providers`` example retrieves details about all capacity providers. :: aws ecs describe-capacity-providers Output:: { "capacityProviders": [ { "capacityProviderArn": "arn:aws:ecs:us-west-2:123456789012:capacity-provider/MyCapacityProvider", "name": "MyCapacityProvider", "status": "ACTIVE", "autoScalingGroupProvider": { "autoScalingGroupArn": "arn:aws:autoscaling:us-west-2:123456789012:autoScalingGroup:a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111:autoScalingGroupName/MyAutoScalingGroup", "managedScaling": { "status": "ENABLED", "targetCapacity": 100, "minimumScalingStepSize": 1, "maximumScalingStepSize": 1000 }, "managedTerminationProtection": "ENABLED" }, "tags": [] }, { "capacityProviderArn": "arn:aws:ecs:us-west-2:123456789012:capacity-provider/FARGATE", "name": "FARGATE", "status": "ACTIVE", "tags": [] }, { "capacityProviderArn": "arn:aws:ecs:us-west-2:123456789012:capacity-provider/FARGATE_SPOT", "name": "FARGATE_SPOT", "status": "ACTIVE", "tags": [] } ] } For more information, see `Cluster capacity providers <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/cluster-capacity-providers.html>`__ in the *Amazon ECS Developer Guide*. **Example 2: To describe a specific capacity providers** The following ``describe-capacity-providers`` example retrieves details about a specific capacity provider. Using the ``--include TAGS`` parameter will add the tags associated with the capacity provider to the output. :: aws ecs describe-capacity-providers \ --capacity-providers MyCapacityProvider \ --include TAGS Output:: { "capacityProviders": [ { "capacityProviderArn": "arn:aws:ecs:us-west-2:123456789012:capacity-provider/MyCapacityProvider", "name": "MyCapacityProvider", "status": "ACTIVE", "autoScalingGroupProvider": { "autoScalingGroupArn": "arn:aws:autoscaling:us-west-2:123456789012:autoScalingGroup:a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111:autoScalingGroupName/MyAutoScalingGroup", "managedScaling": { "status": "ENABLED", "targetCapacity": 100, "minimumScalingStepSize": 1, "maximumScalingStepSize": 1000 }, "managedTerminationProtection": "ENABLED" }, "tags": [ { "key": "environment", "value": "production" } ] } ] } For more information, see `Cluster capacity providers <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/cluster-capacity-providers.html>`__ in the *Amazon ECS Developer Guide*.
