create-instance¶
Description¶
This API is in preview release for Amazon Connect and is subject to change.
Initiates an Amazon Connect instance with all the supported channels enabled. It does not attach any storage, such as Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) or Amazon Kinesis. It also does not allow for any configurations on features, such as Contact Lens for Amazon Connect.
Amazon Connect enforces a limit on the total number of instances that you can create or delete in 30 days. If you exceed this limit, you will get an error message indicating there has been an excessive number of attempts at creating or deleting instances. You must wait 30 days before you can restart creating and deleting instances in your account.

[--client-token <value>]
--identity-management-type <value>
[--instance-alias <value>]
[--directory-id <value>]
--inbound-calls-enabled | --no-inbound-calls-enabled
--outbound-calls-enabled | --no-outbound-calls-enabled
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]
Options¶
--client-token (string)
The idempotency token.
--identity-management-type (string)
The type of identity management for your Amazon Connect users.
Possible values:
SAML
CONNECT_MANAGED
EXISTING_DIRECTORY
--instance-alias (string)
The name for your instance.
--directory-id (string)
The identifier for the directory.
--inbound-calls-enabled | --no-inbound-calls-enabled (boolean)
Your contact center handles incoming contacts.
--outbound-calls-enabled | --no-outbound-calls-enabled (boolean)
Your contact center allows outbound calls.
--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.
See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.
Output¶
Id -> (string)
The identifier for the instance.
Arn -> (string)
