Set up the command line interface

As of November 7, 2017, we are no longer supporting the CloudWatch command line interface with new functionality. It is not available for download. The CloudWatch CLI reference documentation is still available.

We encourage customers to use the Amazon Command Line Interface. The Amazon CLI includes all existing and new CloudWatch commands, and is the only command line interface being updated. For information about installing the Amazon CLI, see Installing the Amazon Command Line Interface. For information about CloudWatch commands in the Amazon CLI, see cloudwatch.
