--catalog-id
(string)
The ID of the Data Catalog in which to create the connection. If none is provided, the AWS account ID is used by default.
--connection-input
(structure)
A
ConnectionInput
object defining the connection to create.Name -> (string)
The name of the connection.
Description -> (string)
The description of the connection.
ConnectionType -> (string)
The type of the connection. Currently, these types are supported:
JDBC
- Designates a connection to a database through Java Database Connectivity (JDBC).
KAFKA
- Designates a connection to an Apache Kafka streaming platform.
MONGODB
- Designates a connection to a MongoDB document database.SFTP is not supported.
MatchCriteria -> (list)
A list of criteria that can be used in selecting this connection.
(string)
ConnectionProperties -> (map)
These key-value pairs define parameters for the connection.
key -> (string)
value -> (string)
PhysicalConnectionRequirements -> (structure)
A map of physical connection requirements, such as virtual private cloud (VPC) and
SecurityGroup
, that are needed to successfully make this connection.SubnetId -> (string)
The subnet ID used by the connection.
SecurityGroupIdList -> (list)
The security group ID list used by the connection.
(string)
AvailabilityZone -> (string)
The connection’s Availability Zone. This field is redundant because the specified subnet implies the Availability Zone to be used. Currently the field must be populated, but it will be deprecated in the future.

--cli-input-json
| --cli-input-yaml
(string)
Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton
. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml
.
--generate-cli-skeleton
(string)
Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input
, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json
. Similarly, if provided yaml-input
it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml
. If provided with the value output
, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.
--cli-auto-prompt
(boolean)
Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.
