**To describe metadata model imports**

The following ``describe-metadata-model-imports`` example retrieves the status of metadata import operations identified by their request IDs. ::

    aws dms describe-metadata-model-imports \
        --migration-project-identifier arn:aws:dms:us-east-1:123456789012:migration-project:EXAMPLEABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRS \
        --filters Name=request-id,Values=a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111,a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE22222,a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE33333

Output::
