aws-iam: Get users in a group.
$ aws iam get-group --group-name ${group_name}
try on your machine
The command "aws iam get-group --group-name ${group_name}" is used to retrieve information about an IAM group in AWS.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "aws iam" indicates that we are using the AWS CLI (Command Line Interface) to interact with the IAM service.
- "get-group" is the specific action we want to perform, which is fetching details about an IAM group.
- "--group-name" is the flag used to specify the name of the IAM group we want information about.
- "${group_name}" is a placeholder that represents the actual name of the IAM group you want to retrieve information for. You need to replace it with the desired group name.
To use this command, you will need to have the AWS CLI installed and configured on your local machine. Additionally, you must have the necessary IAM permissions to retrieve information about the specified group.
