If you are editing a conformance pack that you added previously, use the same PutConformancePack command that you use when deploying a conformance pack.

  1. Open a command prompt or a terminal window.

  2. Enter one of the following commands to deploy a conformance pack named MyConformancePack. The template source is either an Amazon S3 URI, a template that you upload, or an AWS Systems Manager document (SSM document).

    Amazon S3 URI

    aws configservice put-conformance-pack --conformance-pack-name MyConformancePack --template-s3-uri "s3://amzn-s3-demo-bucket/templateName.yaml" --delivery-s3-bucket amzn-s3-demo-bucket

    YAML template from your local directory

    aws configservice put-conformance-pack --conformance-pack-name MyConformancePack --template-body template body

    AWS Systems Manager Document (Systems Manager Document)

    aws configservice put-conformance-pack --conformance-pack-name MyConformancePack --template-ssm-document-details DocumentName=SSMDocumentName,DocumentVersion=SSMDocumentVersion --delivery-s3-bucket amzn-s3-demo-bucket
  3. Press Enter to run the command.

    You should see output similar to the following.

    { "conformancePackArn": "arn:aws:config:us-west-2:AccountID:conformance-pack/MyConformancePack1/conformance-pack-ID" }
