@mkaushik17 Can you please fill in each field of the issue template? Most especially, the EXACT command that you're running (with any sensitive values changed to a placeholder string such as ""), and the image tag that you're using? If the --version entrypoint does not work could you please post the digest of the image you're using, which can be found with docker inspect --format='{{.RepoDigests}}' jantman/awslimitchecker

I'm seeing the same error from the latest image from dockerhub, but it seems like running the checks actually works fine. I thought it was broken for a while too when I was running --region to check my credentials were passed through correctly.

@tmo-trustpilot Thanks for the details. I'll do my best to dig into this within the next few days.

[jantman]

The fix for this has been released in 8.1.0 which is now live on PyPI and live on Docker Hub.

Thank you so much!!
