To attach a target group to an Auto Scaling group

This example attaches the specified target group to the specified Auto Scaling group.

aws autoscaling attach-load-balancer-target-groups \ --auto-scaling-group-name my-asg \ --target-group-arns arn:aws:elasticloadbalancing:us-west-2:123456789012:targetgroup/my-targets/73e2d6bc24d8a067

This command produces no output.
