awslogs: Get logs that match a specific CloudWatch Logs Filter pattern.
$ awslogs get ${-aws-lambda-my_lambda_group} --filter-pattern='${ERROR}'
try on your machine

This command is used to retrieve logs from an AWS Lambda function using the AWS CLI and the awslogs plugin.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • awslogs get is the command used to retrieve logs.
  • ${-aws-lambda-my_lambda_group} is the log group name. This is a placeholder indicating that the actual log group name should be provided in place of ${-aws-lambda-my_lambda_group}.
  • --filter-pattern='${ERROR}' specifies the filter pattern for the logs. In this case, it filters logs containing the text ERROR.

To use this command, replace ${-aws-lambda-my_lambda_group} with the actual name of the log group for the Lambda function you want to retrieve logs from. The filter pattern can be adjusted as needed to search for different log entries.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
