Example 1: This example changes the account alias for your AWS account to
mycompanyaws
. The address of the user logon page chages to https://mycompanyaws.signin.aws.amazon.com/console. The original URL using your account ID number instead of the alias (https://<accountidnumber>.signin.aws.amazon.com/console) continues to work. However, any previously defined alias-based URLs stop working.New-IAMAccountAlias -AccountAlias mycompanyaws
