After the discovery of the Higgs boson, the measurement of its properties are of particular importance. In this paper, measurement of the cross sections and couplings of the Higgs boson in bosonic decay channels with the ATLAS detector are presented. Previous measurements of the spin and parity of this new particle, as well as the investigation of its couplings to other SM particles, revealed no significant deviations from the corresponding predictions for the Standard Model Higgs boson. In the years 2015-2017, the centre-of-mass energy √s and the integrated luminosity of the Large Hadron Collider was increased up to 13 TeV and 36.1 fb-1, respectively. With this improvements of the LHC, the properties of recently discovered Higgs boson can be studied in more details. In this paper, latest updates on cross sections and couplings analyses of the Higgs Boson are presented. The discussion will focus on the recent results obtained by the ATLAS collaboration in γγ and 4l Higgs boson decay channels as well as their combination.
