Modify template (Create new version) via AWS CLI

[ShafrirK]

Hello,

I'm trying to Modify template (Create new version) from AWS CLI via Powershell with this code:

aws ec2 create-launch-template-version --launch-template-id lt-3289dh298dh2389 --version-description WebVersion2 --source-version 1 --launch-template-data '{"ImageId":"ami-0293d939101d983ab"}'

I receive this error:
Error parsing parameter '--launch-template-data': Invalid JSON: Expecting property name enclosed in double quotes: line 1 column 2 (char 1)
JSON received: {ImageId:ami-0293d939101d983ab}

the code syntax was taken directly from AWS CLI create-launch-template-version page (image attached).

does anyone knows what I can do to solve this issue?

Thanks

Found a related issue: #6035. As mentioned there this appears to be expected behavior and a limitation of Powershell. Can you try escaping the double quotes as documented here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-usage-parameters-quoting-strings.html#powershell
