create-recording-configuration¶

Description¶

Creates a new recording configuration, used to enable recording to Amazon S3.

Known issue: In the us-east-1 region, if you use the Amazon Web Services CLI to create a recording configuration, it returns success even if the S3 bucket is in a different region. In this case, the state of the recording configuration is CREATE_FAILED (instead of ACTIVE ). (In other regions, the CLI correctly returns failure if the bucket is in a different region.)

Workaround: Ensure that your S3 bucket is in the same region as the recording configuration. If you create a recording configuration in a different region as your S3 bucket, delete that recording configuration and create a new one with an S3 bucket from the correct region.

Synopsis¶

  create-recording-configuration
--destination-configuration <value>
[--name <value>]
[--tags <value>]
[--thumbnail-configuration <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options¶

--destination-configuration (structure)

A complex type that contains a destination configuration for where recorded video will be stored.

s3 -> (structure)

An S3 destination configuration where recorded videos will be stored.

bucketName -> (string)

Location (S3 bucket name) where recorded videos will be stored.

Shorthand Syntax:

s3={bucketName=string}

JSON Syntax:

{
  "s3": {
    "bucketName": "string"
  }
}

--name (string)

Recording-configuration name. The value does not need to be unique.

--tags (map)

Array of 1-50 maps, each of the form string:string (key:value) . See Tagging Amazon Web Services Resources for more information, including restrictions that apply to tags and “Tag naming limits and requirements”; Amazon IVS has no service-specific constraints beyond what is documented there.

key -> (string)

value -> (string)

Shorthand Syntax:

KeyName1=string,KeyName2=string

JSON Syntax:

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

--thumbnail-configuration (structure)

A complex type that allows you to enable/disable the recording of thumbnails for a live session and modify the interval at which thumbnails are generated for the live session.

recordingMode -> (string)

Thumbnail recording mode. Default: INTERVAL .

targetIntervalSeconds -> (long)

The targeted thumbnail-generation interval in seconds. This is configurable (and required) only if recordingMode is INTERVAL . Default: 60.

Important: Setting a value for targetIntervalSeconds does not guarantee that thumbnails are generated at the specified interval. For thumbnails to be generated at the targetIntervalSeconds interval, the IDR/Keyframe value for the input video must be less than the targetIntervalSeconds value. See Amazon IVS Streaming Configuration for information on setting IDR/Keyframe to the recommended value in video-encoder settings.

Shorthand Syntax:

recordingMode=string,targetIntervalSeconds=long

JSON Syntax:

{
  "recordingMode": "DISABLED"|"INTERVAL",
  "targetIntervalSeconds": long
}

--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 RecordingConfiguration resource

The following create-recording-configuration example creates a RecordingConfiguration resource to enable recording to Amazon S3.

aws ivs create-recording-configuration \
    --name "test-recording-config" \
    --tags "key1=value1, key2=value2" \
    --destination-configuration s3={bucketName=demo-recording-bucket} \
    --thumbnail-configuration recordingMode="INTERVAL", targetIntervalSeconds=30

Output:

{
    "recordingConfiguration": {
        "arn": "arn:aws:ivs:us-west-2:123456789012:recording-configuration/ABcdef34ghIJ",
        "name": "test-recording-config",
        "destinationConfiguration": {
            "s3": {
                "bucketName": "demo-recording-bucket"
            }
        },
        "state": "CREATING",
        "tags": { "key1" : "value1" },
        "thumbnailConfiguration": {
            "recordingMode": "INTERVAL",
            "targetIntervalSeconds": 30
        }
    }
}

Output¶

recordingConfiguration -> (structure)

arn -> (string)

Recording-configuration ARN.

destinationConfiguration -> (structure)

A complex type that contains information about where recorded video will be stored.

s3 -> (structure)

An S3 destination configuration where recorded videos will be stored.

bucketName -> (string)

Location (S3 bucket name) where recorded videos will be stored.

name -> (string)

Recording-configuration name. The value does not need to be unique.

state -> (string)

Indicates the current state of the recording configuration. When the state is ACTIVE , the configuration is ready for recording a channel stream.

tags -> (map)

Array of 1-50 maps, each of the form string:string (key:value) . See Tagging Amazon Web Services Resources for more information, including restrictions that apply to tags and “Tag naming limits and requirements”; Amazon IVS has no service-specific constraints beyond what is documented there.

key -> (string)

value -> (string)

thumbnailConfiguration -> (structure)

A complex type that allows you to enable/disable the recording of thumbnails for a live session and modify the interval at which thumbnails are generated for the live session.

recordingMode -> (string)

Thumbnail recording mode. Default: INTERVAL .

targetIntervalSeconds -> (long)

The targeted thumbnail-generation interval in seconds. This is configurable (and required) only if recordingMode is INTERVAL . Default: 60.
