Options

--resource-group-name (string)

The name of the resource group.

--ops-center-enabled | --no-ops-center-enabled (boolean)

When set to true , creates opsItems for any problems detected on an application.

--cwe-monitor-enabled | --no-cwe-monitor-enabled (boolean)

Indicates whether Application Insights can listen to CloudWatch events for the application resources, such as instance terminated , failed deployment , and others.

--ops-item-sns-topic-arn (string)

The SNS topic provided to Application Insights that is associated to the created opsItem. Allows you to receive notifications for updates to the opsItem.

--tags (list)

List of tags to add to the application. tag key (Key ) and an associated tag value (Value ). The maximum length of a tag key is 128 characters. The maximum length of a tag value is 256 characters.

(structure)

An object that defines the tags associated with an application. A tag is a label that you optionally define and associate with an application. Tags can help you categorize and manage resources in different ways, such as by purpose, owner, environment, or other criteria.

Each tag consists of a required tag key and an associated tag value , both of which you define. A tag key is a general label that acts as a category for a more specific tag value. A tag value acts as a descriptor within a tag key. A tag key can contain as many as 128 characters. A tag value can contain as many as 256 characters. The characters can be Unicode letters, digits, white space, or one of the following symbols: _ . : / = + -. The following additional restrictions apply to tags:

• Tag keys and values are case sensitive.

• For each associated resource, each tag key must be unique and it can have only one value.

• The aws: prefix is reserved for use by AWS; you can’t use it in any tag keys or values that you define. In addition, you can’t edit or remove tag keys or values that use this prefix.

Key -> (string)

One part of a key-value pair that defines a tag. The maximum length of a tag key is 128 characters. The minimum length is 1 character.

Value -> (string)

The optional part of a key-value pair that defines a tag. The maximum length of a tag value is 256 characters. The minimum length is 0 characters. If you don’t want an application to have a specific tag value, don’t specify a value for this parameter.

Shorthand Syntax:

Key=string,Value=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "Key": "string",
    "Value": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--auto-config-enabled | --no-auto-config-enabled (boolean)

Indicates whether Application Insights automatically configures unmonitored resources in the resource group.

--auto-create | --no-auto-create (boolean)

Configures all of the resources in the resource group by applying the recommended configurations.

--grouping-type (string)

Application Insights can create applications based on a resource group or on an account. To create an account-based application using all of the resources in the account, set this parameter to ACCOUNT_BASED .

Possible values:

• ACCOUNT_BASED

--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.
