targets

An array of search criteria that targets managed nodes using a Key,Value combination that you specify. Specifying targets is most useful when you want to send a command to a large number of managed nodes at once. Using Targets, which accepts tag key-value pairs to identify managed nodes, you can send a command to tens, hundreds, or thousands of nodes at once.

To send a command to a smaller number of managed nodes, you can use the InstanceIds option instead.

For more information about how to use targets, see Sending commands to a fleet in the Amazon Web Services Systems Manager User Guide.
