InitiateJob

Source: src/AWS/Glacier/InitiateJob.ts

Runtime binding for the InitiateJob operation (IAM action glacier:InitiateJob on the vault ARN).

Initiates an archive-retrieval, inventory-retrieval, or select job against the bound Vault. Retrieval is asynchronous — poll the returned jobId with DescribeJob and fetch the result with GetJobOutput once it completes (typically 3–5 hours for standard tier, minutes for expedited). Provide the implementation with Effect.provide(AWS.Glacier.InitiateJobHttp).
