<a name="iam_example_iam_ListInstanceProfiles_section"></a>

The following code examples show how to use `ListInstanceProfiles`.

------
#### [ CLI ]

**AWS CLI**  
**To lists the instance profiles for the account**  
The following `list-instance-profiles` command lists the instance profiles that are associated with the current account.  

```
aws iam list-instance-profiles
```
Output:  

```
