AWS Lambda-在区域之间自动复制EC2快照？

Question

I'd like to create a Lambda function (python) that will copy an already created snapshot to another region, automatically.

I've reached out to AWS Support and they've only sent me GitHub scripts that were for RDS databases. No EC2 snapshot copy scripts :(

Any help would be great!

Thank you.

Yes you can do that with boto3

Example: Copying snapshot from region us-east-1 to region eu-west-1

import boto3

def lambda_handler(event, context):
    client = boto3.client('ec2')
    client.copy_snapshot(SourceSnapshotId='snap-xxxxxx',
                         SourceRegion='us-east-1',
                         DestinationRegion='eu-west-1')

If the snapshot is encrypted, add PresignedUrl parameter additionally.
