Example
In the following example or examples, the Authorization header contents
(AUTHPARAMS) must be replaced with an AWS Signature Version 4
signature. For more information, see Signature
Version 4 Signing Process in the AWS General
Reference.
You only need to learn how to sign HTTP requests if you intend to create them manually. When you use the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) or one of the AWS SDKs to make requests to AWS, these tools automatically sign the requests for you, with the access key that you specify when you configure the tools. When you use these tools, you don't have to sign requests yourself.
Example
This example request deletes the cluster called
My-cluster.
