Guides - Manage StackScripts

View StackScripts

Log in to the Cloud Manager and select StackScripts from the left menu. If any StackScripts exist on your account, they are listed on this page.

The Account StackScripts tab includes all of your account StackScripts, including those that are public. The Community StackScripts tab lists all StackScripts that are public, including those from other users.

Each StackScript is displayed along with the username of user that created it, its label, and a brief description. There is also a corresponding table row for the last revision and the number of Compute Instances that have been deployed using the StackScript.
