Options¶

--network-profile-name (string)

The name of the network profile associated with a device.

--description (string)

Detailed information about a device’s network profile.

--ssid (string)

The SSID of the Wi-Fi network.

--security-type (string)

The security type of the Wi-Fi network. This can be WPA2_ENTERPRISE, WPA2_PSK, WPA_PSK, WEP, or OPEN.

Possible values:

OPEN

WEP

WPA_PSK

WPA2_PSK

WPA2_ENTERPRISE

--eap-method (string)

The authentication standard that is used in the EAP framework. Currently, EAP_TLS is supported.

Possible values:

EAP_TLS

--current-password (string)

The current password of the Wi-Fi network.

--next-password (string)

The next, or subsequent, password of the Wi-Fi network. This password is asynchronously transmitted to the device and is used when the password of the network changes to NextPassword.

--certificate-authority-arn (string)

The ARN of the Private Certificate Authority (PCA) created in AWS Certificate Manager (ACM). This is used to issue certificates to the devices.

--trust-anchors (list)

The root certificates of your authentication server that is installed on your devices and used to trust your authentication server during EAP negotiation.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--client-request-token (string)

A unique, user-specified identifier for the request that ensures idempotency.

--tags (list)

The tags to be added to the specified resource. Do not provide system tags.

(structure)

A key-value pair that can be associated with a resource.

Key -> (string)

The key of a tag. Tag keys are case-sensitive.

Value -> (string)

The value of a tag. Tag values are case sensitive and can be null.

Shorthand Syntax:

Key=string,Value=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "Key": "string",
    "Value": "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. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples¶

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To create a network profile

The following create-network-profile example creates a network profile with the specified details.

aws alexaforbusiness create-network-profile \
    --network-profile-name Network123 \
    --ssid Janenetwork \
    --security-type WPA2_PSK \
    --current-password 12345

Output:

{
    "NetworkProfileArn": "arn:aws:a4b:us-east-1:123456789012:network-profile/a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111/a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE22222"
}

For more information, see Managing Network Profiles in the Alexa for Business Administration Guide.

Output¶

NetworkProfileArn -> (string)

The ARN of the network profile associated with a device.
