# `storage-get` ## Summary Prints information for the storage instance with the specified ID. ## Usage ```text storage-get [options] [-s ] [] ``` ### Options | Flag | Default | Usage | |------------------|-----------|-----------------------------------------| | `--format` | smart | Specify output format (json|smart|yaml) | | `-o`, `--output` | | Specify an output file | | `-s` | | Specifies a storage instance by ID. | ## Examples ```none # retrieve information by UUID storage-get 21127934-8986-11e5-af63-feff819cdc9f # retrieve information by name storage-get -s data/0 ``` ## Details When no `` is supplied, all keys values are printed. `storage-get` obtains information about storage being attached to, or detaching from, the unit. If the executing hook is a storage hook, information about the storage related to the hook will be reported; this may be overridden by specifying the name of the storage as reported by `storage-list`, and must be specified for non-storage hooks. `storage-get` can be used to identify the storage location during `storage-attached` and `storage-detaching` hooks. The exception to this is when the charm specifies a static location for singleton stores.
