Release Summary
In this major release, the connection/aws_ssm connection plugin has been fully migrated out of this collection and into amazon.aws (https://forum.ansible.com/t/aws-ssm-connection-refactoring-plugin-promotion/39930). Playbooks or Inventory using the Fully Qualified Collection Name (FQCN) for this connection plugin should be updated to use amazon.aws.aws_ssm. Additionally, botocore<1.31.0 and boto3<1.28.0 are no longer supported; most modules will continue to work with older versions of the AWS SDK, however, compatibility with older versions of the SDK is not guaranteed.
