    "Priority" : Integer,
    "State" : String,
    "JobQueueName" : String
  }
}

YAML

Type: AWS::Batch::JobQueue
Properties:
  ComputeEnvironmentOrder: 
    - ComputeEnvironmentOrder 
  Priority: Integer
  State: String
  JobQueueName: String

Update requires: No Interruption

State

The status of the job queue (for example, CREATING or VALID).

Required: no

Type: String

Return Values

Ref

When you pass the logical ID of an AWS::Batch::JobQueue resource to the intrinsic Ref function, the function returns the job queue ARN, such as arn:aws:batch:us-east-1:111122223333:job-queue/HighPriority.

For more information about using the Ref function, see Ref.

Examples

Job queue with two compute environments

The following example defines a job queue called HighPriority that has two compute environments mapped to it.
