Overview
This PR fixes an issue where specifying the security group name (
groupName
) in theAWS::EC2::Instance
resource along with the subnet parameter causes an error. The security group should be referenced by its ID rather than by its name.Changes
SecurityGroups
parameter toSecurityGroupIds
and usedFn::GetAtt
to retrieve the security group ID.Background
The AWS EC2 API does not allow the use of
groupName
(security group name) in combination withsubnet
. Instead, security groups must be referenced by their ID. This change addresses that limitation by updating the template to use the security group ID.Testing
The updated template was successfully tested by creating a stack without encountering errors.
