How to find the ip of an instance in EC2 using filter in C#

Question

I have several EC2 instances and i wanted to find an ip addresses of those. I was thinking to use DescribeInstances with Filter , but can't find any example how to apply Filter . Any help is appreciated.

Answer 1

This is already answered previously: Listing Instances in AWS .NET SDK

So, in addition to InstanceId and InstanceType which the example in the above link prints, you can also print

Console.WriteLine(runningInstance.PrivateIpAddress);
Console.WriteLine(runningInstance.PublicIpAddress);

If you need to add filter to the DescribeInstanceRequest then check DescribeInstanceRequest With Filter

Example - How to set filter:

new DescribeInstancesRequest()
{
    Filter = new List<Filter>()
    {
        new Filter()
        {
            Name = "instance-id",
            Value = new List<String>()
            {
                "i-223c1a1b"
            }
        }
    }
}

So, the above filter will return the details of that particular instance with instance id: i-223c1a1b.
