sqsc: Describe a queue.
$ sqsc describe ${queue_name}
try on your machine

The command "sqsc describe ${queue_name}" is used to retrieve information about a specific Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS) queue.

Here's a breakdown of each component:

  • "sqsc" refers to the SQS command line interface (CLI) tool, which allows you to interact with SQS from your command line or terminal.
  • "describe" is the action you want to perform on the queue. In this case, you want to retrieve information about the queue.
  • "${queue_name}" is a placeholder for the actual name of the queue you want to describe. You need to replace "${queue_name}" with the actual name of the SQS queue you want to retrieve information about.

By executing this command with the correct queue name, you will get detailed information about that specific queue, including its ARN (Amazon Resource Name), URL, visibility timeout, message retention period, and other attributes.

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.
