[ aws . lex-models ]
Creates a custom slot type or replaces an existing custom slot type.
To create a custom slot type, specify a name for the slot type and a set of enumeration values, which are the values that a slot of this type can assume. For more information, see how-it-works .
If you specify the name of an existing slot type, the fields in the request replace the existing values in the $LATEST
version of the slot type. Amazon Lex removes the fields that you don’t provide in the request. If you don’t specify required fields, Amazon Lex throws an exception. When you update the $LATEST
version of a slot type, if a bot uses the $LATEST
version of an intent that contains the slot type, the bot’s status
field is set to NOT_BUILT
.
This operation requires permissions for the lex:PutSlotType
action.

--name
(string)
The name of the slot type. The name is not case sensitive.
The name can’t match a built-in slot type name, or a built-in slot type name with “AMAZON.” removed. For example, because there is a built-in slot type called
AMAZON.DATE
, you can’t create a custom slot type calledDATE
.For a list of built-in slot types, see Slot Type Reference in the Alexa Skills Kit .
--description
(string)
A description of the slot type.
--enumeration-values
(list)
A list of
EnumerationValue
objects that defines the values that the slot type can take. Each value can have a list ofsynonyms
, which are additional values that help train the machine learning model about the values that it resolves for a slot.A regular expression slot type doesn’t require enumeration values. All other slot types require a list of enumeration values.
When Amazon Lex resolves a slot value, it generates a resolution list that contains up to five possible values for the slot. If you are using a Lambda function, this resolution list is passed to the function. If you are not using a Lambda function you can choose to return the value that the user entered or the first value in the resolution list as the slot value. The
valueSelectionStrategy
field indicates the option to use.(structure)
Each slot type can have a set of values. Each enumeration value represents a value the slot type can take.
For example, a pizza ordering bot could have a slot type that specifies the type of crust that the pizza should have. The slot type could include the values
thick
thin
stuffed
value -> (string)
The value of the slot type.
synonyms -> (list)
Additional values related to the slot type value.
(string)
Shorthand Syntax:
value=string,synonyms=string,string ...
JSON Syntax:
[
{
"value": "string",
"synonyms": ["string", ...]
}
...
]
--checksum
(string)
Identifies a specific revision of the
$LATEST
version.When you create a new slot type, leave the
checksum
field blank. If you specify a checksum you get aBadRequestException
exception.When you want to update a slot type, set the
checksum
field to the checksum of the most recent revision of the$LATEST
version. If you don’t specify thechecksum
field, or if the checksum does not match the$LATEST
version, you get aPreconditionFailedException
exception.
--value-selection-strategy
(string)
Determines the slot resolution strategy that Amazon Lex uses to return slot type values. The field can be set to one of the following values:
ORIGINAL_VALUE
- Returns the value entered by the user, if the user value is similar to the slot value.
TOP_RESOLUTION
- If there is a resolution list for the slot, return the first value in the resolution list as the slot type value. If there is no resolution list, null is returned.If you don’t specify the
valueSelectionStrategy
, the default isORIGINAL_VALUE
.Possible values:
ORIGINAL_VALUE
TOP_RESOLUTION
--create-version
| --no-create-version
(boolean)
When set to
true
a new numbered version of the slot type is created. This is the same as calling theCreateSlotTypeVersion
operation. If you do not specifycreateVersion
, the default isfalse
.
--parent-slot-type-signature
(string)
The built-in slot type used as the parent of the slot type. When you define a parent slot type, the new slot type has all of the same configuration as the parent.
Only
AMAZON.AlphaNumeric
is supported.
--slot-type-configurations
(list)
Configuration information that extends the parent built-in slot type. The configuration is added to the settings for the parent slot type.
(structure)
Provides configuration information for a slot type.
regexConfiguration -> (structure)
A regular expression used to validate the value of a slot.
pattern -> (string)
A regular expression used to validate the value of a slot.
Use a standard regular expression. Amazon Lex supports the following characters in the regular expression:
A-Z, a-z
0-9
Unicode characters (“u<Unicode>”)
Represent Unicode characters with four digits, for example “u0041” or “u005A”.
The following regular expression operators are not supported:
Infinite repeaters: *, +, or {x,} with no upper bound.

--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.
--debug
(boolean)
Turn on debug logging.
--endpoint-url
(string)
Override command’s default URL with the given URL.
--no-verify-ssl
(boolean)
By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.
--no-paginate
(boolean)
Disable automatic pagination.
--output
(string)
The formatting style for command output.
json
text
table
yaml
yaml-stream
--query
(string)
A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.
--profile
(string)
Use a specific profile from your credential file.
--region
(string)
The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.
--version
(string)
Display the version of this tool.
--color
(string)
Turn on/off color output.
on
off
auto
--no-sign-request
(boolean)
Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.
--ca-bundle
(string)
The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.
--cli-read-timeout
(int)
The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.
--cli-connect-timeout
(int)
The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.
--cli-binary-format
(string)
The formatting style to be used for binary blobs. The default format is base64. The base64 format expects binary blobs to be provided as a base64 encoded string. The raw-in-base64-out format preserves compatibility with AWS CLI V1 behavior and binary values must be passed literally. When providing contents from a file that map to a binary blob fileb://
will always be treated as binary and use the file contents directly regardless of the cli-binary-format
setting. When using file://
the file contents will need to properly formatted for the configured cli-binary-format
.
base64
raw-in-base64-out
--no-cli-pager
(boolean)
Disable cli pager for output.
--cli-auto-prompt
(boolean)
Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.
--no-cli-auto-prompt
(boolean)
Disable automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.
