Instead of using AWS and JQ to get the snapshot names, you can do it with a single command using –query.
Here are the previous commands.
/usr/bin/aws lightsail get-instance-snapshots --region us-east-1 --profile default > $snaps cat $snaps | jq -r '.instanceSnapshots[] | .name' > $names |
Using query.
aws lightsail get-instance-snapshots \ --query 'instanceSnapshots[*].[name]' \ --region us-east-1 \ --profile default \ --output text > $names |
