Install the Session Manager plugin for the AWS CLI

Minimum plugin version required

Update your Session Manager plugin to version 1.2.764.0 or later. Session Manager will soon stop supporting earlier versions, and your operations might not succeed. To check your installed version, run the following command.

session-manager-plugin --version

To initiate Session Manager sessions with your managed nodes by using the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI), you must install the Session Manager plugin on your local machine. You can install the plugin on supported versions of Microsoft Windows Server, macOS, Linux, and Ubuntu Server.

Note

To use the Session Manager plugin, you must have AWS CLI version 1.16.12 or later installed on your local machine. For more information, see Installing or updating the latest version of the AWS Command Line Interface.
