Using the AWS CLI and API operations on Snowball Edge device - AWS Snowball Edge Developer Guide

When using the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) or API operations to issue IAM, Amazon S3 and Amazon EC2 commands on Snowball Edge, you must specify the region as "snow." You can do this using AWS configure or within the command itself, as in the following examples.

aws configure --profile ProfileName
AWS Access Key ID [None]: defgh
AWS Secret Access Key [None]: 1234567
Default region name [None]: snow
Default output format [None]: json

Or


aws s3 ls --endpoint http://192.0.2.0:8080 --region snow --profile ProfileName
