In the AWS CLI how do I treat a special character as a string? I'm trying to run an AWS CLI command for a resource with a ! in its name.
I'm doing this from Centos docker instance running on my local device a MAC and if I run
echo &quot;$SHELL&quot; 

it says it is using bash
Using echo 'test!'  works for returning the value
but testing in my CLI command it does not work
aws autoscaling put-scheduled-update-group-action --auto-scaling-group-name temp_asg --scheduled-action-name 'test!' --start-time 2020-12-06T12:00:00Z --min-size 0 --max-size 1 --desired-capacity 0 --region eu-west-1 --output json

returns
bash: !`: event not found
my AWS CLI version in the docker instance I'm running it from is
aws-cli/1.16.251
I found that if I put it in a script it sees it as a string and it's only an issue running directly from the terminal/command prompt but not an issue when running from a script with the header/shabang
#!/bin/bash
My final goal for this is for it to be part of a script so this has resolved my issue.
Im still not 100% on the issue when directly in the terminal and don't know if it's specific to the shell I'm using?
