SSM easy way - using instance name

Question

Hi,
I started using AWS-SSM, so I can use the SSO solution to connect to the EC2-instances using the SSM.
But, as known; to connect to the SSM; should use the instance id.
I am looking if there is a way to use the instance name instead of the instance id.

There's nothing built-in at this time to the AWS CLI SSM start-session command.

I have a [public gist](https://gist.github.com/mencarellic/b564e13c77c3592614a3a64b659452aa) that is rough but working.

There is also [rewindio/aws-connect](https://github.com/rewindio/aws-connect) but I have no personal experience with it. Your mileage may vary.
