AWS EC2 Describe Snapshots

Here’s how to describe snapshots using query with tags.

aws ec2 describe-snapshots \
--owner-ids xxxxxxxxxxx \
--profile default \
--region us-east-2 \
--output text \
--query "Snapshots[*].[SnapshotId,Tags[?Key=='Name'].Value[] | [0]]"

aws ec2 describe-snapshots \ --owner-ids xxxxxxxxxxx \ --profile default \ --region us-east-2 \ --output text \ --query "Snapshots[*].[SnapshotId,Tags[?Key=='Name'].Value[] | [0]]"

Result.

snap-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx	Server1
snap-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx	Server2

snap-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Server1 snap-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Server2
