AWS Aurora RDS Parameter Group – Is it possible to export from one account and import to another? – Amazon Web Sevices

I was hoping that there might be an easy way to export a parameter group from one account to another account. This doesn’t seem possible via the aws console.

I checked the aws cli rds command documentation, and there is the DESCRIBE command, which i have used to create a text or json output file. But i am not seeing a way to import that pg.

Thanks for any help/suggestions.

    Ah...I should have looked a little deeper at the aws cli commands, before posting this question. Sorry!

    After posting, I just noticed that the create command accepts a json input file!
    That will do what i need.

    aws rds create-db-parameter-group 
    --db-parameter-group-name <group-name> 
    --db-parameter-group-family <group-family> 
    --description <group-description> 
    --cli-input-json file://<path-to-file>

    Great that you found a solution, also, you could evaluate use AWS Cloudformation Templates to deploy your configurations for multiples accounts in more easy way. Below you can find more information for AWS RDS Parameters Groups using AWS Cloudformation.
