# Request Inferences from a Deployed Service (AWS CLI)
<a name="neo-requests-cli"></a>

Inference requests can be made with the [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/sagemaker-runtime/invoke-endpoint.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/sagemaker-runtime/invoke-endpoint.html) once you have an Amazon SageMaker AI endpoint `InService`. You can make inference requests with the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI). The following example shows how to send an image for inference: 

```
aws sagemaker-runtime invoke-endpoint --endpoint-name 'insert name of your endpoint here' --body fileb://image.jpg --content-type=application/x-image output_file.txt
```

An `output_file.txt` with information about your inference requests is made if the inference was successful. 

 For TensorFlow submit an input with `application/json` as the content type. 

```
aws sagemaker-runtime invoke-endpoint --endpoint-name 'insert name of your endpoint here' --body fileb://input.json --content-type=application/json output_file.txt
```
