How to migrate parameter store data to other Region / AWS Account

Consider that I have got a AWS account that already has some parameter store data.

Is there a way to migrate these data from this parameter store to another:

I would prefer official tools to do this, but tools similar to dynamoDB dump are also welcome.

This article might help

For another account, you need to export parameters from account by using command aws ssm get-parameters-by-path --path "/" --recursive

and you will get all the parameters as response.

Now you have to login to another account using command aws configure. just replace following values 

$ aws configure
AWS Access Key ID [None]: AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE
AWS Secret Access Key [None]: wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY
Default region name [None]: us-west-2
Default output format [None]: json

reference here

and then follow the article I shared above.

There is no "official tool" to do this. It could be done by iterating through the existing parameters and creating them in the target.

I found this tool that somebody has written: aws-ssm-copy · PyPI: Copy parameters from a AWS parameter store to another

It looks like it can copy between Regions and between AWS Accounts (by providing multiple Profiles).
