Migrate from AWS CLI version 1 to version 2
This section contains instructions for updating the AWS CLI version 1 to AWS CLI version 2. The AWS CLI version 2 builds on AWS CLI version 1 and includes features and enhancements based on community feedback.
Before you migrate to version 2, learn about the differences between the versions. The AWS CLI version 2 includes new features and changes that might require you to update your scripts or commands for backwards compatibility.
AWS CLI versions 1 and 2 use the same aws command name. If you have both
versions installed, your computer uses the first one found in your search path.
If you previously installed AWS CLI version 1, follow our migration instructions to start using version 2.
If you have not previous installed AWS CLI version 1, follow the instructions in Get started with the AWS CLI.
