AWS AWSCloudFormation documentation change

Service: AWSCloudFormation · 2025-06-22 · Documentation low

File: AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/self-managed-import.md

Summary

Updated documentation to use consistent capitalization of 'StackSet' instead of 'stack set' and fixed a URL reference

Security assessment

The changes primarily involve capitalization consistency (StackSet vs stack set) and a documentation URL correction. There is no evidence of security vulnerability fixes, security feature additions, or security-related procedural changes in the diff.

-The AWS CloudFormation stack import operation can import existing stacks into new or existing stack sets, so that you can migrate existing stacks to a stack set in one operation. By using stack import, you avoid downtime and outages without deleting and recreating those resources. Once the stack is imported into a stack set, the original stack will become a stack instance of the specified stack set.
