AWS cli documentation change

Service: cli · 2025-08-22 · Documentation low

File: cli/latest/reference/gameliftstreams/update-stream-group.md

Summary

Updated AWS CLI version reference from 2.28.12 to 2.28.15; Added default values for Always-on/On-demand capacities; Added new --default-application-identifier parameter documentation; Formatting changes for status codes

Security assessment

The changes primarily document default values for capacity types and a new application identifier parameter. While the default-application-identifier parameter mentions security-related concepts like ARNs, there is no evidence of addressing vulnerabilities or introducing new security controls. Formatting changes (bold to code formatting) are stylistic.
