**To get metadata for a specified stream**

The following ``get-stream-session`` example gets the metadata configuration for the specified channel ARN (Amazon Resource Name) and the specified stream; if streamId is not provided, the most recent stream for the channel is selected. ::

    aws ivs get-stream-session \
        --channel-arn arn:aws:ivs:us-west-2:123456789012:channel/abcdABCDefgh \
        --stream-id "mystream"

Output::
