**To get a CloudFront distribution configuration**

The following example gets metadata about the CloudFront distribution with the ID ``EDFDVBD6EXAMPLE``, including its ``ETag``. The distribution ID is returned in the `create-distribution <create-distribution.html>`__ and `list-distributions <list-distributions.html>`__ commands. ::

    aws cloudfront get-distribution-config \
        --id EDFDVBD6EXAMPLE

Output::
