## Examples


In the following example or examples, the Authorization header contents (`AUTHPARAMS`) must be replaced with an Amazon Signature Version 4 signature. For more information, see [Signature Version 4 Signing Process](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/general/latest/gr/signature-version-4.html) in the * Amazon General Reference*.

You only need to learn how to sign HTTP requests if you intend to create them manually. When you use the [Amazon Command Line Interface](http://www.amazonaws.cn/cli/) or one of the [Amazon SDKs](http://www.amazonaws.cn/tools/) to make requests to Amazon, these tools automatically sign the requests for you, with the access key that you specify when you configure the tools. When you use these tools, you don't have to sign requests yourself.

### Example


This example deletes the first revision of the monitoring-agent daemon task definition.
