 # Container Linux AMI Module
 
 This [Terraform][] [module][] supports `latest` versions for [Container Linux][container-linux] release channels and returns an appropriate [AMI][].
+It uses [implicit provider inheritance][implicit-provider-inheritance] to access the [AWS provider][AWS-provider].
 
 ## Example
 
-From the module directory:
+Set up a `main.tf` with:
+
+```hcl
+provider "aws" {
+  region = "us-east-1"
+}
+
+module "ami" {
+  source = "github.com/openshift/installer//modules/aws/ami"
+}
+
+output "ami" {
+  value = "${module.ami.id}"
+}
+```
+
+You can set `release_channel` and `release_version` if you need a specific Container Linux install.
+
+Then run:
 
 ```console
 $ terraform init
-$ terraform apply --var region=us-east-1
-$ terraform output id
-ami-ab6963d4
-$ terraform apply --var region=us-east-1 --var release_channel=alpha
-$ terraform output id
-ami-985953e7
-$ terraform apply --var region=us-east-2 --var release_channel=alpha --var release_version=1814.0.0
-$ terraform output id
-ami-c25f66a7
+$ terraform apply
+$ terraform output ami
+ami-00cc4337762ba4a52
 ```
 
-When you're done, clean up by removing the `.terraform` directory created by `init` and the `terraform.tfstate*` files created by `apply`.
