AWS SDK Code Examples

This repository contains code examples that demonstrate how to use the AWS SDKs to interact with AWS services.

Many examples are injected into the AWS Documentation.

How this repository is organized

Code examples for each language's SDK can be found within the following subdirectories. The examples here demonstrate the most common uses of the SDK for each language.

Within each directory, you will find SDK-specific instructions for understanding and invoking example code.

NOTE

In alignment with our SDKs and Tools Maintenance Policy, the AWS SDK for Java v1.x will enter maintenance mode on July 31, 2024, and reach end-of-support on December 31, 2025.

For more information, see Announcing end-of-support for AWS SDK for Java v1.x.

Additional directories

Invoke example code

To invoke this example code, you must have an AWS account. For more information about creating an account, see AWS Free Tier.

You must also have AWS credentials configured. For steps on using the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) to configure credentials, see CLI Configuration basics

⚠️ Usage disclaimer

These code examples interact with services that may incur charges to your AWS account. For more information, see AWS Pricing.

Additionally, example code might theoretically modify or delete existing AWS resources. As a matter of due diligence, do the following:

• Be aware of the resources that these examples create or delete.
• Be aware of the costs that might be charged to your account as a result.
• Back up your important data.

Requests

Requests for examples can be made via Issue tracker.

How we prioritize contributions and requests

Our team reviews all requests, evaluating them for the following:

• Clarity
• Relevance
• Feasibility

All examples requests should be made as early as possible. For larger examples, this should be at least two months in advance of the required date.

Based on the evaluation, we determine the priority of each request and allocate resources accordingly. We prioritize requests that are clear, relevant, and can be completed in a reasonable amount of time. An accompanying high quality PR increases the chance we can address the request.

Please note that some requests, such as bug fixes and security issues, take priority over new code examples. Additionally, we have finite resources and our own priorities that guide the development of code examples. If you have any questions or would like to contribute, please refer to our contribution guide.
