What can I automate with Amazon EC2 in Sim?

You can describe instances, describe instance status, start instances, stop instances, and reboot instances with Amazon EC2 in Sim, plus 29 more Amazon EC2 tools listed on this page. Each runs as a tool inside an AI agent, so the agent can combine Amazon EC2 with any other connected service and apply LLM reasoning between steps.

How do I connect Amazon EC2 to Sim?

(1) Create a free account at sim.ai. (2) Create an agent in your workspace. (3) Drag an Amazon EC2 block onto the workflow builder. (4) Paste your Amazon EC2 API key to authenticate. (5) Pick a tool such as "Describe Instances", wire up its inputs, and click Run.

How do I describe instances with Amazon EC2 in Sim?

Add an Amazon EC2 block to your agent and select "Describe Instances" as the tool. List EC2 instances with their state, type, networking, and tags. Fill in the required fields. Inputs can reference outputs from earlier steps, such as text generated by an AI block or data fetched from another integration.

What Sim agents can do with Amazon EC2

Integrate Amazon EC2 into workflows. Describe and control instances, manage Elastic IP addresses, inspect VPCs, subnets, route tables, NAT and internet gateways, security groups, and network interfaces, add and revoke security group ingress rules, inspect network ACLs, VPC endpoints, and peering connections, work with EBS volumes and snapshots, list AMIs and key pairs, and tag resources. Requires an AWS access key with the matching ec2:* IAM permissions.
