Does EC2 have AWS CLI?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 5:59 pm

EC2 has the AWS CLI, but it is not the only way to manage your EC2 instances. There are other commands you can use to manage your EC2 instances, such as the EC2 API, the EC2 command line tools, or the AWS CloudFormation tool.

PRO TIP: The AWS CLI is not currently available on EC2. We recommend using the AWS Management Console or the AWS SDKs to access AWS resources from EC2 instances.

Overall, the AWS CLI is a helpful tool, but there are other ways to manage your EC2 instances.
