AWS SSM Parameter Export and Import Scripts

These scripts allow you to export and import AWS SSM parameters to and from a JSON file. The export script retrieves SSM parameters and saves them into a JSON file, while the import script reads from this JSON file and re-creates the parameters in AWS SSM.

Prerequisites

  • AWS CLI installed and configured
  • jq installed for JSON processing
  • Appropriate AWS IAM permissions to read and write SSM parameters

Scripts

1. Export SSM Parameters to JSON

This script exports AWS SSM parameters to a JSON file.

Export Usage

./export_ssm_params_to_json.sh [-p | --pathTemplate <path>] [-h | --help]

Export Options

  • -p, --pathTemplate : Specify the path template for SSM parameters. If not provided, all parameters will be pulled.
  • -h, --help : Display the help message.

Export Example

./export_ssm_params_to_json.sh -p /my/custom/path

If no path template is provided, the script will pull all parameters.

2. Import SSM Parameters from JSON
