You can choose a different image for an instance group by editing it with `kops edit ig nodes`. You should see an `image` field in one of the following formats: You can choose a different image for an instance group by editing it with `kops edit ig nodes`.
* `ami-abcdef` - specifies an AMI by id directly For AWS, you should set the `image` field in one of the following formats:
* `<owner>/<name>` specifies an AMI by its owner's account ID and name properties * `ami-abcdef` - specifies an image by id directly (image id is precise, but ids vary by region)
* `<alias>/<name>` specifies an AMI by its [owner's alias](#owner-aliases) and name properties * `<owner>/<name>` specifies an image by its owner's account ID and name properties
* `ssm:<ssm_parameter>` specifies an AMI through an SSM parameter * `<alias>/<name>` specifies an image by its [owner's alias](#owner-aliases) and name properties
* `ssm:<ssm_parameter>` specifies an image through an SSM parameter (kOps 1.25.3+)
Using the AMI id is precise, but ids vary by region. It is often more convenient to use the `<owner/alias>/<name>` if equivalent images with the same name have been copied to other regions.

If you are using AWS, you can dynamically fetch instance group images from an AWS SSM Parameter. kOps will automatically fetch SSM Parameter and lookup the AMI ID on every `kops update cluster` run. This is useful if you often update your images and don't want to update your instance group configuration every time. Your SSM Parameter must start with `ssm:` and contain the full path of the SSM Parameter.
