I find AWS documentation to be one of the best out there. Consistent across all their products, very detailed and easy to navigate. I am curious what you found to be lacking in their docs.
- AtlasBarfed 5y agoexamples of most/all of the parameters is lacking sample output/responses is almost always lacking, I usually need to perform an a cli call to see what the output will be. Their error messages/codes seem to vary with time / aren't consistent / aren't documented. There are about five different messages I get if my token has timed out I've seen. And I'm mostly an ec2/s3/r53 user, aka the oldest apis. What are the other ones like?

- philliphaydon 5y agoThat’s very non specific. What exactly is lacking in all documentation right now.
- StreamBright 5y agoFor example a document explaining how to implement the least privilege principle for what any customer wants to on their platform. Well, I know the answer, there is no way for a customer to achieve this, so you have to engage the support.
- SilasX 5y agoIt's been a while and I don't have the frustrations written up. However, implicit in "we're starting our own SO" is the recognition that the docs aren't enough.
