AWS code-library documentation change

Service: code-library · 2025-10-10 · Documentation low

File: code-library/latest/ug/cli_2_servicediscovery_code_examples.md

Summary

Updated AWS Cloud Map CLI examples to include ARN usage patterns, cross-account namespace sharing documentation, and standardized resource identifiers across all examples

Security assessment

Changes demonstrate secure practices for cross-account resource management through ARN usage and owner-account parameters, but do not address specific vulnerabilities. Added documentation about resource ownership tracking (ResourceOwner/CreatedByAccount fields) and shared namespace security considerations
