--instance-snapshot-name <string> | The name for your new snapshot |
--instance-name <string> | The Lightsail instance on which to base your snapshot |

--generate-cli-skeleton <string> | Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value ``input``, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for ``--cli-input-json``.
