+
+Use the AWS CloudWatch Monitoring template to monitor data from Amazon Web Services (AWS), Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), and Amazon Elastic Load Balancing (ELB) with the AWS CloudWatch Service.
+
+When you install this template, you'll get the following:
+
+- 2 dashboards:
+  - **AWS CloudWatch NLB (Network Load Balancers) Monitoring**: Displays data from the cloudwatch_aws_network_elb measurement
+  - **AWS CloudWatch Instance Monitoring**: Displays data from the cloudwatch_aws_ec2 measurement
+- 2 labels: `inputs.cloudwatch`, `AWS`
+- 1 variable: `v.bucket`
+- 1 Telegraf input plugin: [AWS CloudWatch](/v2.0/reference/telegraf-plugins/#cloudwatch)
+
+## Install the template
+
+1. In the influx CLI, run the following command:
+
+    ```sh
+    influx pkg -u https://raw.githubusercontent.com/influxdata/community-templates/master/aws_cloudwatch/aws_cloudwatch.yml
+    ```
+
+2. Load the dashboards.
+3. [Configure the AWS Cloudwatch input plugin](/v2.0/write-data/no-code/use-telegraf/manual-config/#configure-telegraf-input-and-output-plugins).
+4. [Start Telegraf](/v2.0/write-data/no-code/use-telegraf/auto-config/#start-telegraf).
+5. In InfluxDB, select **Boards** (**Dashboards**).
+
+    {{< nav-icon "dashboards" >}}, open your AWS dashboards, and then use the `v.bucket` variable to specify the bucket to store data in.
