**To list shards in a data stream**

The following ``list-shards`` example lists all shards in the specified stream starting with the shard whose ID immediately follows the specified ``exclusive-start-shard-id`` of ``shardId-000000000000``. ::

    aws kinesis list-shards \
        --stream-name samplestream \
        --exclusive-start-shard-id shardId-000000000000

Output::
