AWS - Auto Scaling

A{ "InstanceType": "t3.micro" }

B{ "Instance": "t3.micro" }

C{ "TypeInstance": "t3.micro" }

D{ "InstanceType": t3.micro }

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Recall launch template JSON syntax
The correct key for instance type is "InstanceType" and the value must be a string in quotes.
Step 2: Check each option for syntax correctness
{ "InstanceType": "t3.micro" } uses correct key and quotes around value. { "InstanceType": t3.micro } misses quotes around value, causing syntax error.
Final Answer:
{ "InstanceType": "t3.micro" } -> Option A
Quick Check:
Correct JSON key and string value = B [OK]

Quick Trick: Use "InstanceType" key with quoted string value in JSON [OK]
