Specifying or changing the Parameter Store default tier using the console - AWS Systems Manager

Specifying or changing the Parameter Store default tier using the console

The following procedure shows how to use the Systems Manager console to specify or change the default parameter tier for the current AWS account and AWS Region.

Tip

If you haven't created a parameter yet, you can use the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) or AWS Tools for Windows PowerShell to change the default parameter tier. For information, see Specifying or changing the Parameter Store default tier using the AWS CLI and Specifying or changing the Parameter Store default tier (PowerShell).

To specify or change the Parameter Store default tier

  1. Open the AWS Systems Manager console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/.

  2. In the navigation pane, choose Parameter Store.

  3. Choose the Settings tab.

  4. Choose Manage settings.

  5. In the Parameter default tier section, choose an option. For information about these options, see Specifying a default parameter tier.

  6. If prompted, select the option to approve the changes and authorize charges. Choose Save settings.

If you want to change the default tier setting later, repeat this procedure and specify a different default tier option.
