Find All Availability Domains
The data returned by the oci iam availability-domain list command can be returned in either tabular or JSON format. The tabular format is easier to scan, while the JSON can return all fields:
Create Table of All Available Domains
To find all availability domains in your tenancy, run the following command to return the output as a table:
oci iam availability-domain list \
--query 'data[*].{"AD Name":name, OCID:id}' \
--output table
Sample output is:
+-----------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | AD Name | OCID | +-----------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | bPBR:AP-SYDNEY-1-AD-1 | ocid1.availabilitydomain.oc1..aaaaaaaalhnzffyixz4hyhp7gtcdskahy22cekpcgndvwdjffrdv6d5iqi5a | +-----------------------+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
