Guided command examples for the AWS CLI
The AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) is an open source tool that enables you to interact with a wide range
of AWS services using commands in your command-line shell. This section provides guided
examples that show how to leverage the AWS CLI to access some of the AWS services. This includes
some of the custom AWS CLI commands, such as the high-level aws s3 commands. These
command examples demonstrate common actions used for some AWS services and provide additional
resources for more information.
Whether you are an experienced AWS user or new to the AWS CLI, these guided examples serve as a resource for streamlining your AWS operations.
