📢 Table of Contents

ℹ️ Pro Tip!

👉 If you have multiple AWS Accounts, you can use bash alias like the following. So you no longer need to pass --profile to aws tool.

alias aws-prod="aws --profile work-prod"
alias aws-dev="aws --profile work-dev"
alias aws-self="aws --profile personal"
alias aws="aws --profile work-dev"
