Use AWS CLI to import existing resources into CloudFormation

Question

I have a collection of CloudFormation templates that I'm using to create new resources but I also have a small percentage of AWS resources that were created outside of CF that I now want to import into CF. I know how to import existing resources into CF via the AWS dashboard but I want to do it with the CLI instead.

This is the documentation I thought would help but it appears to be out of date as I don't have a "--resources-to-import" option when I run aws cloudformation create-stack help . An up-to-date example would be very helpful if this is even possible via the command-line.

在该页面上 CLI 文档的第 4 步中，它实际上是一个create-change-set调用而不是create-stack调用：

aws cloudformation create-change-set --change-set-type IMPORT --resources-to-import
