EKS Log Collector - InvalidDocumentContent

[Chili-Man]

What happened:
I'm trying to follow the directions here https://github.com/awslabs/amazon-eks-ami/tree/master/log-collector-script/linux#to-invoke-ssm-agent-to-run-eks-log-collector-script-and-push-bundle-to-s3-from-worker-nodes for collecting the logs. I get the following error:

aws ssm create-document --name "EKSLogCollector" --document-type "Command" --content 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/awslabs/amazon-eks-ami/master/log-collector-script/linux/eks-ssm-content.json'
An error occurred (InvalidDocumentContent) when calling the CreateDocument operation: JSON not well-formed. at Line: 1, Column: 6
exit status 254

Debug output here: https://gist.github.com/Chili-Man/1be262c422d929b87ccc822570553919

What you expected to happen:
I expect the command to succeed per the documentation

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):

aws ssm create-document --name "EKSLogCollector" --document-type "Command" --content 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/awslabs/amazon-eks-ami/master/log-collector-script/linux/eks-ssm-content.json'

**Anything else we need to know?**:
I'm running the command in Ubuntu 20.04

```shell
aws --version

This seems to be working for me:

 ➜  amazon-eks-ami git:(master) aws ssm create-document --name "EKSLogCollector" --document-type "Command" --content 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/awslabs/amazon-eks-ami/master/log-collector-script/linux/eks-ssm-content.json'

Closing this issue, please let me know if this still doesn't work for you.

I'm able to reproduce this issue on:

aws-cli/2.4.13 Python/3.8.8 Darwin/20.6.0 exe/x86_64

and

aws-cli/2.4.13 Python/3.8.8 Linux/5.4.156 exe/x86_64

It works as expected on:

aws-cli/1.22.32 Python/3.8.11 Linux/5.4.156 botocore/1.23.32

I'm considering this a documentation issue for us, because this boils down to the behavior of the --content flag for aws ssm create-document. But it'd be nice to narrow things down however much we can.

I am getting this issue while trying to collect logs for windows. Not sure if I missing something.

❯ aws --version
aws-cli/2.9.20 Python/3.9.11 Windows/10 exe/AMD64 prompt/off

❯ aws ssm create-document --name "EKSLogCollectorWindows" --document-type "Command" --content https://raw.githubusercontent.com/awslabs/amazon-eks-ami/master/log-collector-script/windows/eks-ssm-content.json

An error occurred (InvalidDocumentContent) when calling the CreateDocument operation: JSON not well-formed. at Line: 1, Column: 6
