  • To delete an image that has been shared, you must unshare the image before you delete it.

  • Sharing Bring Your Own License (BYOL) images across AWS accounts isn't supported at this time in the AWS GovCloud (US-West) Region. To share BYOL images across accounts in the AWS GovCloud (US-West) Region, contact AWS Support.
