How can I automate the installation process on multiple Windows machines within my organization for setting AWS CLI version 2?
I am a cloud engineer and I am responsible for setting up AWS CLI version 2 on multiple Windows machines within my organization. My task is to automate the installation process by using the command line to ensure consistency and efficiency across all machines. What would be the command line instructions for this particular scenario?
In the context of AWS, here are the command line instructions to install the AWS CLI version 2 on a Windows system and Configuration AWS credentials:-
Download the AWS CLI version 2 installer
Open a command prompt.
You can use the following command for downloading the AWS cli version 2
Curl https://awscli.amazonaws.com/AWSCLIV2.msi -o “AWSCLIV2.msi”
Install AWS CLI version 2
After downloading the installer you can use the following command to install the AWS CLI version 2:-
“msiexec /I AWSCLIV2. Msi”
Verifying the AWS CLI installation
Once you have installed the AWS CLI version 2, you can run the following command:-
“aws - - version”
Configuration of AWS credentials
After completing the process of installing AWS CLI version 2, you can configure AWS Credentials to enable interactions with the AWS services. You can use the following command:-

Alternatively, you can directly set the credentials by using the environment variables:-
