create-configuration-profile

Description

Creates a configuration profile, which is information that enables AppConfig to access the configuration source. Valid configuration sources include the AppConfig hosted configuration store, Amazon Web Services Systems Manager (SSM) documents, SSM Parameter Store parameters, Amazon S3 objects, or any integration source action supported by CodePipeline. A configuration profile includes the following information:

• The URI location of the configuration data.

• The Identity and Access Management (IAM) role that provides access to the configuration data.

• A validator for the configuration data. Available validators include either a JSON Schema or an Amazon Web Services Lambda function.

For more information, see Create a Configuration and a Configuration Profile in the AppConfig User Guide .

Synopsis

  create-configuration-profile
--application-id <value>
--name <value>
[--description <value>]
--location-uri <value>
[--retrieval-role-arn <value>]
[--validators <value>]
[--tags <value>]
[--type <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--application-id (string)

The application ID.

--name (string)

A name for the configuration profile.

--description (string)

A description of the configuration profile.

--location-uri (string)

A URI to locate the configuration. You can specify the AppConfig hosted configuration store, Systems Manager (SSM) document, an SSM Parameter Store parameter, or an Amazon S3 object. For the hosted configuration store and for feature flags, specify hosted . For an SSM document, specify either the document name in the format ssm-document://<Document_name> or the Amazon Resource Name (ARN). For a parameter, specify either the parameter name in the format ssm-parameter://<Parameter_name> or the ARN. For an Amazon S3 object, specify the URI in the following format: s3://<bucket>/<objectKey> . Here is an example: s3://my-bucket/my-app/us-east-1/my-config.json

--retrieval-role-arn (string)

The ARN of an IAM role with permission to access the configuration at the specified LocationUri .

Warning

A retrieval role ARN is not required for configurations stored in the AppConfig hosted configuration store. It is required for all other sources that store your configuration.

--validators (list)

A list of methods for validating the configuration.

(structure)

A validator provides a syntactic or semantic check to ensure the configuration that you want to deploy functions as intended. To validate your application configuration data, you provide a schema or an Amazon Web Services Lambda function that runs against the configuration. The configuration deployment or update can only proceed when the configuration data is valid.

Type -> (string)

AppConfig supports validators of type JSON_SCHEMA and LAMBDA

Content -> (string)

Either the JSON Schema content or the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an Lambda function.

Shorthand Syntax:

Type=string,Content=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "Type": "JSON_SCHEMA"|"LAMBDA",
    "Content": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--tags (map)

Metadata to assign to the configuration profile. Tags help organize and categorize your AppConfig resources. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value, both of which you define.

key -> (string)

value -> (string)

Shorthand Syntax:

KeyName1=string,KeyName2=string

JSON Syntax:

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

--type (string)

The type of configurations contained in the profile. AppConfig supports feature flags and freeform configurations. We recommend you create feature flag configurations to enable or disable new features and freeform configurations to distribute configurations to an application. When calling this API, enter one of the following values for Type :

AWS.AppConfig.FeatureFlags

AWS.Freeform

--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.

Examples

To create a configuration profile

The following create-configuration-profile example creates a configuration profile using a configuration stored in Parameter Store, a capability of Systems Manager.

aws appconfig create-configuration-profile \
    --application-id "339ohji" \
    --name "Example-Configuration-Profile" \
    --location-uri "ssm-parameter://Example-Parameter" \
    --retrieval-role-arn "arn:aws:iam::111122223333:role/Example-App-Config-Role"

Output:

{
    "ApplicationId": "339ohji",
    "Description": null,
    "Id": "ur8hx2f",
    "LocationUri": "ssm-parameter://Example-Parameter",
    "Name": "Example-Configuration-Profile",
    "RetrievalRoleArn": "arn:aws:iam::111122223333:role/Example-App-Config-Role",
    "Type": null,
    "Validators": null
}
