Getting information about an instance group
After creating an instance group, you can get basic information about the group.
You can only use the CLI or API to retrieve user metadata transmitted when creating or editing a group.
To get information about an instance group:
- Open the folder page in the management console.
- Select Compute Cloud.
- On the left-hand panel, select Instance groups.
- Click on the name of the group you need.
If you don't have the Yandex Cloud command line interface yet, install and initialize it.
The folder specified in the CLI profile is used by default. You can specify a different folder using the --folder-name
or --folder-id
parameter.

See the description of the CLI's get instance group info command:
yc compute instance-group get --help
