## Return values
<a name="aws-resource-ivs-publickey-return-values"></a>

### Ref
<a name="aws-resource-ivs-publickey-return-values-ref"></a>

When you pass the logical ID of this resource to the intrinsic `Ref` function, `Ref` returns the public key ARN. For example:

 `{ "Ref": "myPublicKey" }` 

For the Amazon IVS public key `myPublicKey`, `Ref` returns the public key ARN.

For more information about using the `Ref` function, see [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/intrinsic-function-reference-ref.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/intrinsic-function-reference-ref.html).

### Fn::GetAtt
<a name="aws-resource-ivs-publickey-return-values-fn--getatt"></a>

The `Fn::GetAtt` intrinsic function returns a value for a specified attribute of this type. The following are the available attributes and sample return values.

For more information about using the `Fn::GetAtt` intrinsic function, see [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/intrinsic-function-reference-getatt.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/intrinsic-function-reference-getatt.html).

#### 
<a name="aws-resource-ivs-publickey-return-values-fn--getatt-fn--getatt"></a>

`Arn`  <a name="Arn-fn::getatt"></a>
The public key ARN. For example: `arn:aws:ivs:us-west-2:123456789012:public-key/abcdABCDefgh`

`Fingerprint`  <a name="Fingerprint-fn::getatt"></a>
The public key identifier. For example: `98:0d:1a:a0:19:96:1e:ea:0a:0a:2c:9a:42:19:2b:e7`
