AWS cli documentation change

Service: cli · 2026-02-28 · Documentation low

File: cli/latest/reference/cognito-idp/confirm-sign-up.md

Summary

Updated CLI version reference to 2.34.0, added --cli-error-format parameter, expanded Lambda trigger documentation, and standardized clientMetadata explanations

Security assessment

Changes improve consistency in Lambda trigger documentation patterns and CLI parameters. While better documentation helps prevent implementation errors, there is no direct reference to patching vulnerabilities or addressing security incidents.
