Script to add new parameters to parameter store stops

Question

One step in our process to push a new version of our app  to production is to create a corresponding  set of parameters. That way we can smoke test the new version before actually directing traffic to it. We have created a script which creates the new parameters based on various version specific variables. When running the script, it stops after successfully creating only 9 of the 25 parameters. The following is what is displayed in the terminal window:  
  
usage: aws \[options]   \[ ...] \[parameters]  
To see help text, you can run:  
  
  aws help  
  aws  help  
  aws   help  
  
Unknown options: put-parameter, ssm  
tc_set_params:24: number expected  
  
If we attempt to copy and paste the remaining parameters directly in the terminal window, it again stops after processing a subset of those statements.  
  
All statements are valid if run individually of in small groups

Answer

Hi,  
  
For the initial diagnosis, can you try following:  
  
1. Could you use the --debug option in the cli to troubleshoot?https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-chap-troubleshooting.html   
2. Lint the script that you use to create parameters
