Using the AWS CLI

The AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) is a unified tool to manage your AWS services. 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 is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. More information at AWS CLI.

Kion provides a companion CLI tool that can help get AWS credentials in your terminal to use the AWS CLI.
