# Get the details of an S3 Access Grants instance


You can get the details of your Amazon S3 Access Grants instance in a particular AWS Region. You can get the details of your S3 Access Grants instance by using the Amazon S3 console, the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI), the Amazon S3 REST API, and the AWS SDKs.

## Using the S3 console


**To get the details of an S3 Access Grants instance**

1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the Amazon S3 console at [https://console.aws.amazon.com/s3/](https://console.aws.amazon.com/s3/).

1. In the left navigation pane, choose **Access Grants**.

1. On the **S3 Access Grants** page, choose the Region that contains the S3 Access Grants instance that you want to work with.

1. The **S3 Access Grants** page lists your S3 Access Grants instances and any cross-account instances that have been shared with your account. To view the details of an instance, choose **View details**. 

## Using the AWS CLI


To install the AWS CLI, see [Installing the AWS CLI](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/getting-started-install.html) in the *AWS Command Line Interface User Guide*. 

To use the following example command, replace the `user input placeholders` with your own information.

**Example – Get the details of an S3 Access Grants instance**  

```
aws s3control get-access-grants-instance \
 --account-id 111122223333 \
 --region us-east-2
```
Response:  

```
{
    "AccessGrantsInstanceArn": "arn:aws:s3:us-east-2: 111122223333:access-grants/default",
    "AccessGrantsInstanceId": "default",
    "CreatedAt": "2023-05-31T17:54:07.893000+00:00"
