aws s3 cp s3://bucket-name/file-name .

The file will be downloaded from the s3 bucket and stored in the current directory of the ec2 instance.

Task-02

Create a snapshot of the EC2 instance and use it to launch a new EC2 instance.

Select the EC2 instance that you want to create a snapshot of.

Snapshot created.

Use snapshot to launch a new EC2 instance

In right side, click on Actions and select 'Create image from snapshot'

here login as the user "ubuntu" rather than the user "root"

Download a file from the S3 bucket using the AWS CLI.

aws s3 cp command to download the file from your S3 bucket to your EC2 instance.

aws s3 cp s3://BUCKET_NAME/PATH/TO/FILE /PATH/TO/LOCAL/FILE
ls
