• The AWS Systems Manager CloudWatch Dashboard will no longer be available after April 30, 2026. Customers can continue to use Amazon CloudWatch console to view, create, and manage their Amazon CloudWatch dashboards, just as they do today. For more information, see [Amazon CloudWatch Dashboard documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudWatch/latest/monitoring/CloudWatch_Dashboards.html). # Actions for Systems Manager using AWS SDKs The following code examples demonstrate how to perform individual Systems Manager actions with AWS SDKs. Each example includes a link to GitHub, where you can find instructions for setting up and running the code. These excerpts call the Systems Manager API and are code excerpts from larger programs that must be run in context. You can see actions in context in [Scenarios for Systems Manager using AWS SDKs](service_code_examples_scenarios.md). The following examples include only the most commonly used actions. For a complete list, see the [AWS Systems Manager API Reference](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/latest/APIReference/Welcome.html). **Topics** +
