describe_query#

CloudTrail.Client.describe_query(**kwargs)#

Returns metadata about a query, including query run time in milliseconds, number of events scanned and matched, and query status. If the query results were delivered to an S3 bucket, the response also provides the S3 URI and the delivery status.

You must specify either QueryId or QueryAlias. Specifying the QueryAlias parameter returns information about the last query run for the alias. You can provide RefreshId along with QueryAlias to view the query results of a dashboard query for the specified RefreshId.
