AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer Associate SOA-C03 Practice Question

A Python-based Lambda function must programmatically trigger a custom Systems Manager Automation runbook named PatchInstance that installs security patches on a single Amazon EC2 instance. The runbook requires an input parameter called InstanceId, and the function must obtain an identifier it can later use to poll the runbook's status. Which AWS SDK for Python (Boto3) call and payload pattern satisfies these requirements?

  • Call ssm.start_session with Target='i-0123456789abcdef0'; read SessionId from the response.

  • Call ssm.create_association with Name='PatchInstance' and InstanceId='i-0123456789abcdef0'; read AssociationId from the response.

  • Call ssm.start_automation_execution with DocumentName='PatchInstance' and Parameters={'InstanceId':['i-0123456789abcdef0']}; read AutomationExecutionId from the response.

  • Call ssm.send_command with DocumentName='PatchInstance' and Targets=[{'Key':'InstanceIds','Values':['i-0123456789abcdef0']}]; read CommandId from the response.
