Updating an Amazon Cloud Map service instance

You can update service instances in two ways, depending on which values you want to update:

  • Update any values: If you want to update any of the values that you specified for a service instance when you registered it, including custom attributes, you need to reregister the service instance and respecify all values. Follow the steps in Registering a resource as an Amazon Cloud Map service instance, specifying the instance ID of the existing service instance for Service instance ID.

    Alternatively, you can use the RegisterInstance API. You can specify the ID of the existing instance and service using the InstanceId and ServiceId parameters and respecify other values.

  • Update only custom attributes: If you want to update only the custom attributes for a service instance, you don't need to reregister the instance. You can update only those values. See Updating the custom attributes for a service instance.
