name : update-document.rst **To create a new version of a document** The following ``update-document`` example creates a new version of a document when run on a Windows computer. The document specified by ``--document`` must be in JSON format. Note that ``file://`` must be referenced followed by the path of the content file. Because of the ``$`` at the beginning of the ``--document-version`` parameter, On Windows you must surround the value with double quotes. On Linux, MacOS, or at a PowerShell prompt, you must surround the value with single quotes. **Windows version**:: aws ssm update-document \ --name "RunShellScript" \ --content "file://RunShellScript.json" \ --document-version "$LATEST" **Linux/Mac version**:: aws ssm update-document \ --name "RunShellScript" \ --content "file://RunShellScript.json" \ --document-version '$LATEST' Output:: { "DocumentDescription": { "Status": "Updating", "Hash": "f775e5df4904c6fa46686c4722fae9de1950dace25cd9608ff8d622046b68d9b", "Name": "RunShellScript", "Parameters": [ { "Type": "StringList", "Name": "commands", "Description": "(Required) Specify a shell script or a command to run." } ], "DocumentType": "Command", "PlatformTypes": [ "Linux" ], "DocumentVersion": "2", "HashType": "Sha256", "CreatedDate": 1487899655.152, "Owner": "809632081692", "SchemaVersion": "2.0", "DefaultVersion": "1", "LatestVersion": "2", "Description": "Run an updated script" } }
