**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:: { "streamSession": { "channel": { "arn": "arn:aws:ivs:us-west-2:123456789012:channel/abcdABCDefgh", "authorized": true, "ingestEndpoint": "a1b2c3d4e5f6.global-contribute.live-video.net", "insecureIngest": false, "latencyMode": "LOW", "name": "mychannel", "playbackUrl": "url-string", "recordingConfigurationArn": "arn:aws:ivs:us-west-2:123456789012:recording-configuration/ABcdef34ghIJ", "tags": { "key1" : "value1", "key2" : "value2" }, "type": "STANDARD" }, "startTime": 1641578182, "endTime": 1641579982, "ingestConfiguration": { "audio": { "channels": 2, "codec": "mp4a.40.2", "sampleRate": 8000, "targetBitrate": 46875 }, "video": { "avcLevel": "4.2", "avcProfile": "Baseline", "codec": "avc1.42C02A", "encoder": "Lavf58.45.100", "targetBitrate": 8789062, "targetFrameRate": 60, "videoHeight": 1080, "videoWidth": 1920 } }, "recordingConfiguration": { "arn": "arn:aws:ivs:us-west-2:123456789012:recording-configuration/ABcdef34ghIJ", "destinationConfiguration": { "s3": { "bucketName": "demo-recording-bucket" } }, "name": "test-recording-config", "state": "ACTIVE", "tags": { "rkey1" : "rvalue1" }, "thumbnailConfiguration": { "recordingMode": "INTERVAL", "targetIntervalSeconds": 30 } }, "streamId": "mystream1", "truncatedEvents": [ { "eventTime": 1641579941, "name": "Session Ended", "type": "IVS Stream State Change" } ] } } For more information, see `Create a Channel <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ivs/latest/userguide/GSIVS-create-channel.html>`__ in the *Amazon Interactive Video Service User Guide*.
