Hey drewma2k@, “--include CONFIGURATIONS” would only give outputs if you have certain configurations with the ECS Cluster such as KMS, logging and storage KMS configuration as per API doc [1]. The CLI doc for "describe-clusters" [2] could have also included and clarified the configurations as what is described on the API DescribeClusters doc.

To make the docs better, you could "Provide Feedback" at the bottom of the docs page [1]. Also, I have raised an internal ticket to our docs team for improvement and clarification.
Please let me know if you have any follow up questions.

Thank you

Thank you for the clarification. Is there any way to find the log group associated with an ECS service? That’s what I thought would be under the configuration section.

Hello @drewma2k, thanks for following up. To get the log group associated with the cluster using $ aws ecs describe-clusters --clusters <cluster_name> --include CONFIGURATIONS, you must have a cluster log configuration already set. You can use the update_cluster operation to set these configurations on an existing cluster (https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/reference/services/ecs/client/update_cluster.html).
Please let me know if you have any questions, thanks.
