create-bot-alias¶

Description¶

Creates an alias for the specified version of a bot. Use an alias to enable you to change the version of a bot without updating applications that use the bot.

For example, you can create an alias called “PROD” that your applications use to call the Amazon Lex bot.

  "detectSentiment": true|false
}

--bot-id (string)

The unique identifier of the bot that the alias applies to.

--tags (map)

A list of tags to add to the bot alias. You can only add tags when you create an alias, you can’t use the UpdateBotAlias operation to update the tags on a bot alias. To update tags, use the TagResource operation.

key -> (string)

value -> (string)

Shorthand Syntax:

KeyName1=string,KeyName2=string

JSON Syntax:

{"string": "string"
  ...}

--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.
