AWS LightSail Blueprints
Amazon Lightsail offers a variety of OS blueprints, starting from Amazon Linux 2, Ubuntu 20, Windows Server 2019 to Debian 10 to name just a few. Blueprints are a curated selection of operating systems and software that are preinstalled for the creation of instances. For brevity, only a subset of blueprints are displayed below. The description and licenseUrl portions are truncated. To display an entire list of LightSail blueprints, run this command.
<pre lang="bash">aws lightsail get-blueprints --region us-east-1
Output:
<pre lang="bash">{
"blueprints": [
{
"blueprintId": "ubuntu_20_04",
"name": "Ubuntu",
"group": "ubuntu_20",
"type": "os",
"description": "Ubuntu 20.04 LTS - Focal. Lean, fast and powerful, Ubuntu Server delivers services reliably ...",

},
{

}
}
In this example, I’m using the query option to display only the blueprints ids.
<pre lang="bash">aws lightsail get-blueprints --query 'blueprints[*].[blueprintId]' --output text --region us-east-1
Output:
