Hi,

Where is the location of the `aws_ssm` module?

It used to be lib/ansible/plugins/lookup/aws\_ssm.py on the ansible repo: [https://github.com/ansible/ansible](https://github.com/ansible/ansible)

I can see with a git log that is was migrated to ansible.amazon on March 9. Where is this location?

`  
gurtajatwell:~/ansible|devel⚡  
⇒ git log -n 1 --follow – lib/ansible/plugins/lookup/aws\_ssm.py

commit 6d910034a0a12f93b323e88b809c66afde6e713a

Migrated to ansible.amazon  
gurtajatwell:~/ansible|devel⚡

I can provide more information on request.

Thank you Ansible Community! 🙂

Oops, my apologies, I thought you were asking for the connection plugin. The lookup plugin is located over at:

[https://github.com/ansible-collections/amazon.aws](https://github.com/ansible-collections/amazon.aws)
