AWS cli documentation change

Service: cli · 2026-07-13 · Documentation low

File: cli/latest/reference/dms/create-instance-profile.md

Summary

Added examples section showing instance profile creation with security configurations like VPC security groups and non-public accessibility. Updated CLI version references.

Security assessment

The example documents security features (network isolation via VPC groups and disabling public access) but doesn't address a specific security vulnerability. It enhances documentation of security best practices.

+**To create an instance profile**
+
+The following `create-instance-profile` example creates an instance profile.

+    
+    aws dms create-instance-profile \
+        --instance-profile-name example-instance-profile \
+        --description "Example instance profile for documentation" \
+        --subnet-group-identifier example-replication-subnet-group \
+        --vpc-security-groups "sg-0123456789abcdef0" \
+        --kms-key-arn arn:aws:kms:us-east-1:123456789012:key/a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111 \
