--fleet-type (string)

The fleet type.

ALWAYS_ON

Provides users with instant-on access to their apps. You are charged for all running instances in your fleet, even if no users are streaming apps.

ON_DEMAND

Provide users with access to applications after they connect, which takes one to two minutes. You are charged for instance streaming when users are connected and a small hourly fee for instances that are not streaming apps.

Possible values:

ALWAYS_ON

ON_DEMAND

ELASTIC

--compute-capacity (structure)

The desired capacity for the fleet. This is not allowed for Elastic fleets. For Elastic fleets, specify MaxConcurrentSessions instead.

DesiredInstances -> (integer)

The desired number of streaming instances.

Shorthand Syntax:

DesiredInstances=integer

JSON Syntax:

{
  "DesiredInstances": integer
}

--vpc-config (structure)

The VPC configuration for the fleet. This is required for Elastic fleets, but not required for other fleet types. Elastic fleets require that you specify at least two subnets in different availability zones.

SubnetIds -> (list)

The identifiers of the subnets to which a network interface is attached from the fleet instance or image builder instance. Fleet instances use one or more subnets. Image builder instances use one subnet.

(string)

SecurityGroupIds -> (list)

The identifiers of the security groups for the fleet or image builder.

(string)

Shorthand Syntax:

SubnetIds=string,string,SecurityGroupIds=string,string

JSON Syntax:

{
  "SubnetIds": ["string", ...],
  "SecurityGroupIds": ["string", ...]
}

--max-user-duration-in-seconds (integer)

The maximum amount of time that a streaming session can remain active, in seconds. If users are still connected to a streaming instance five minutes before this limit is reached, they are prompted to save any open documents before being disconnected. After this time elapses, the instance is terminated and replaced by a new instance.

Specify a value between 600 and 360000.

--disconnect-timeout-in-seconds (integer)

The amount of time that a streaming session remains active after users disconnect. If users try to reconnect to the streaming session after a disconnection or network interruption within this time interval, they are connected to their previous session. Otherwise, they are connected to a new session with a new streaming instance.

Specify a value between 60 and 360000.

--description (string)

The description to display.

--display-name (string)

The fleet name to display.

--enable-default-internet-access | --no-enable-default-internet-access (boolean)

Enables or disables default internet access for the fleet.

--domain-join-info (structure)

The name of the directory and organizational unit (OU) to use to join the fleet to a Microsoft Active Directory domain. This is not allowed for Elastic fleets.

DirectoryName -> (string)

The fully qualified name of the directory (for example, corp.example.com).

OrganizationalUnitDistinguishedName -> (string)

The distinguished name of the organizational unit for computer accounts.

Shorthand Syntax:

DirectoryName=string,OrganizationalUnitDistinguishedName=string

JSON Syntax:

{
  "DirectoryName": "string",
  "OrganizationalUnitDistinguishedName": "string"
}

--tags (map)

The tags to associate with the fleet. A tag is a key-value pair, and the value is optional. For example, Environment=Test. If you do not specify a value, Environment=.

If you do not specify a value, the value is set to an empty string.

Generally allowed characters are: letters, numbers, and spaces representable in UTF-8, and the following special characters:

_ . : / = + - @

For more information, see Tagging Your Resources in the Amazon AppStream 2.0 Administration Guide .

key -> (string)

value -> (string)

Shorthand Syntax:

KeyName1=string,KeyName2=string

JSON Syntax:

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

--idle-disconnect-timeout-in-seconds (integer)

The amount of time that users can be idle (inactive) before they are disconnected from their streaming session and the DisconnectTimeoutInSeconds time interval begins. Users are notified before they are disconnected due to inactivity. If they try to reconnect to the streaming session before the time interval specified in DisconnectTimeoutInSeconds elapses, they are connected to their previous session. Users are considered idle when they stop providing keyboard or mouse input during their streaming session. File uploads and downloads, audio in, audio out, and pixels changing do not qualify as user activity. If users continue to be idle after the time interval in IdleDisconnectTimeoutInSeconds elapses, they are disconnected.

To prevent users from being disconnected due to inactivity, specify a value of 0. Otherwise, specify a value between 60 and 3600. The default value is 0.

Note

If you enable this feature, we recommend that you specify a value that corresponds exactly to a whole number of minutes (for example, 60, 120, and 180). If you don’t do this, the value is rounded to the nearest minute. For example, if you specify a value of 70, users are disconnected after 1 minute of inactivity. If you specify a value that is at the midpoint between two different minutes, the value is rounded up. For example, if you specify a value of 90, users are disconnected after 2 minutes of inactivity.

--iam-role-arn (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the IAM role to apply to the fleet. To assume a role, a fleet instance calls the AWS Security Token Service (STS) AssumeRole API operation and passes the ARN of the role to use. The operation creates a new session with temporary credentials. AppStream 2.0 retrieves the temporary credentials and creates the appstream_machine_role credential profile on the instance.

For more information, see Using an IAM Role to Grant Permissions to Applications and Scripts Running on AppStream 2.0 Streaming Instances in the Amazon AppStream 2.0 Administration Guide .

--stream-view (string)

The AppStream 2.0 view that is displayed to your users when they stream from the fleet. When APP is specified, only the windows of applications opened by users display. When DESKTOP is specified, the standard desktop that is provided by the operating system displays.

The default value is APP .

Possible values:

APP

DESKTOP

--platform (string)

The fleet platform. WINDOWS_SERVER_2019 and AMAZON_LINUX2 are supported for Elastic fleets.

Possible values:

WINDOWS

WINDOWS_SERVER_2016

WINDOWS_SERVER_2019

AMAZON_LINUX2

--max-concurrent-sessions (integer)

The maximum concurrent sessions of the Elastic fleet. This is required for Elastic fleets, and not allowed for other fleet types.

--usb-device-filter-strings (list)

The USB device filter strings that specify which USB devices a user can redirect to the fleet streaming session, when using the Windows native client. This is allowed but not required for Elastic fleets.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--session-script-s3-location (structure)

The S3 location of the session scripts configuration zip file. This only applies to Elastic fleets.

S3Bucket -> (string)

The S3 bucket of the S3 object.

S3Key -> (string)

The S3 key of the S3 object.

Shorthand Syntax:

S3Bucket=string,S3Key=string

JSON Syntax:

{
  "S3Bucket": "string",
  "S3Key": "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.
