Perform the following steps to set up AWS CLI:

  • Under Configure Script in the AWS CLI dialog, click Download Script to save the script to your local machine.
  • Alternatively, you can use wget to pull this script to your execution platform, as shown below. Substitute your installation's Privacera Platform host domain name or IPv4 address for <PRIVACERA_PORTAL_HOST>.
    Bash

    wget http://<PRIVACERA_PORTAL_HOST>:6868/api/cam/download/script -O privacera_aws.sh

# If you are using HTTPS, you may need to use the "--no-check-certificate" option for wget.
wget --no-check-certificate https://<PRIVACERA_PORTAL_HOST>:6868/api/cam/download/script -O privacera_aws.sh
  • Copy the downloaded script to your home directory.
