# Actions for Systems Manager using Amazon SDKs
<a name="service_code_examples_actions"></a>

The following code examples demonstrate how to perform individual Systems Manager actions with Amazon SDKs. Each example includes a link to GitHub, where you can find instructions for setting up and running the code. 

These excerpts call the Systems Manager API and are code excerpts from larger programs that must be run in context. You can see actions in context in [Scenarios for Systems Manager using Amazon SDKs](service_code_examples_scenarios.md). 

 The following examples include only the most commonly used actions. For a complete list, see the [Amazon Systems Manager API Reference](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/systems-manager/latest/APIReference/Welcome.html).
