I am trying to see the what CLI options there are and have run the command

awslocal

I am getting this response

zsh: command not found: awslocal

I am not sure what other steps I am missing

Answer 1

Run the command:

pip3 install awscli --upgrade --user

and watch closely where the aws cli tool gets installed, you can see the path on terminal log, in my case I got something like this:

awscli in ./Library/Python/3.8/lib/python/site-packages

Now you should add to your.bash_profile the same path but on the bin folder(removing from the lib path and instead put your bin path) like this:

export PATH=/Users/your.user.name/Library/Python/3.8/bin/:$PATH
