Universal Command Line Interface for Amazon Web Services - strictly confined

The AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) is a unified tool to manage your AWS services.

This is a strictly confined version, for enhanced security.

With just one tool to download and configure, you can control multiple AWS services from the command line and automate them through scripts.

The AWS CLI v2 offers several new features including improved installers, new configuration options such as AWS Single Sign-On (SSO), and various interactive features.

For best user experience, create an alias for this snap to the standard upstream binary name.

$ sudo snap alias amz-aws-cli aws

If you are migrating from other packaging of AWS CLI, you may want to migrate your existing config.

$ amz-aws-cli.setup

If you find bash completion is not working, you can probably get it working by installing the core snap. This seems to be a bug in the completion implementation.

$ sudo snap install core
