How to create the EC2 instance in AWS Using boto3 in python

Here’s a Python script using boto3 to create an EC2 instance in AWS. Make sure you have AWS credentials configured using aws configure or environment variables.

Configure AWS CLI credentials:

aws configure

Prerequisites:

• Install boto3:

    pip install boto3
  

Create Ec2 Instance

import boto3

def create_ec2_instance():
    ec2 = boto3.resource('ec2')

    instance = ec2.create_instances(
        ImageId='ami-0c55b159cbfafe1f0',  # Replace with your AMI ID
        MinCount=1,
        MaxCount=1,
        InstanceType='t2.micro',  # Change as needed
        KeyName='your-key-pair-name',  # Replace with your key pair name
        SecurityGroupIds=['sg-0123456789abcdef0'],  # Replace with your security group ID
        SubnetId='subnet-0123456789abcdef0',  # Replace with your subnet ID
        TagSpecifications=[
            {
                'ResourceType': 'instance',
                'Tags': [{'Key': 'Name', 'Value': 'MyEC2Instance'}]
            }
        ]
    )

    print(f'EC2 instance {instance[0].id} created successfully!')

if __name__ == "__main__":
    create_ec2_instance()

Explanation:

• Replace ami-0c55b159cbfafe1f0 with an appropriate AMI ID for your region.
