# Use `DescribeAssociationExecutionTargets` with a CLI
`DescribeAssociationExecutionTargets`

The following code examples show how to use `DescribeAssociationExecutionTargets`.

------
#### [ CLI ]

**AWS CLI**  
**To get details of an association execution**  
The following `describe-association-execution-targets` example describes the specified association execution.  

```
aws ssm describe-association-execution-targets \
    --association-id "8dfe3659-4309-493a-8755-0123456789ab" \
    --execution-id "7abb6378-a4a5-4f10-8312-0123456789ab"
```
Output:  

```
{
    "AssociationExecutionTargets": [
        {
            "AssociationId": "8dfe3659-4309-493a-8755-0123456789ab",
            "AssociationVersion": "1",
            "ExecutionId": "7abb6378-a4a5-4f10-8312-0123456789ab",
            "ResourceId": "i-1234567890abcdef0",
            "ResourceType": "ManagedInstance",
            "Status": "Success",
            "DetailedStatus": "Success",
            "LastExecutionDate": 1550505538.497,
            "OutputSource": {
                "OutputSourceId": "97fff367-fc5a-4299-aed8-0123456789ab",
                "OutputSourceType": "RunCommand"
            }
        }
    ]
}
```

#### [ PowerShell ]

**Tools for PowerShell V4**  
**Example 1: This example displays the resource ID and its execution status that are part of the the association execution targets**  

```
Get-SSMAssociationExecutionTarget -AssociationId 123a45a0-c678-9012-3456-78901234db5e -ExecutionId 123a45a0-c678-9012-3456-78901234db5e | Select-Object ResourceId, Status
```
**Output:**  

```
ResourceId           Status
----------           ------
i-0b1b2a3456f7a890b  Success
i-01c12a45d6fc7a89f  Success
i-0a1caf234f56d7dc8  Success
i-012a3fd45af6dbcfe  Failed
i-0ddc1df23c4a5fb67  Success
```
**Example 2: This command checks the particular execution of a particular automation since yesterday, where a command document is associated. It further checkes if the association execution failed, and if so, it will display the command invocation details for the execution along with the instance id**  

```
$AssociationExecution= Get-SSMAssociationExecutionTarget -AssociationId 1c234567-890f-1aca-a234-5a678d901cb0 -ExecutionId 12345ca12-3456-2345-2b45-23456789012 | 
    Where-Object {$_.LastExecutionDate -gt (Get-Date -Hour 00 -Minute 00).AddDays(-1)} 

foreach ($execution in $AssociationExecution) {
    if($execution.Status -ne 'Success'){
        Write-Output "There was an issue executing the association $($execution.AssociationId) on $($execution.ResourceId)"
        Get-SSMCommandInvocation -CommandId $execution.OutputSource.OutputSourceId -Detail:$true | Select-Object -ExpandProperty CommandPlugins
    }
}
```
**Output:**  

```
