create-view

Description

Creates a view that users can query by using the Search operation. Results from queries that you make using this view include only resources that match the view’s Filters . For more information about Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer views, see Managing views in the Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer User Guide .

Only the principals with an IAM identity-based policy that grants Allow to the Search action on a Resource with the Amazon resource name (ARN) of this view can Search using views you create with this operation.

Options

--client-token (string)

This value helps ensure idempotency. Resource Explorer uses this value to prevent the accidental creation of duplicate versions. We recommend that you generate a UUID-type value to ensure the uniqueness of your views.

--filters (structure)

An array of strings that specify which resources are included in the results of queries made using this view. When you use this view in a Search operation, the filter string is combined with the search’s QueryString parameter using a logical AND operator.

For information about the supported syntax, see Search query reference for Resource Explorer in the Amazon Web Services Resource Explorer User Guide .

Warning

This query string in the context of this operation supports only filter prefixes with optional operators . It doesn’t support free-form text. For example, the string region:us* service:ec2 -tag:stage=prod includes all Amazon EC2 resources in any Amazon Web Services Region that begins with the letters us and is not tagged with a key Stage that has the value prod .

FilterString -> (string)

The string that contains the search keywords, prefixes, and operators to control the results that can be returned by a Search operation. For more details, see Search query syntax .

Shorthand Syntax:

FilterString=string

JSON Syntax:

{
  "FilterString": "string"
}

--included-properties (list)

Specifies optional fields that you want included in search results from this view. It is a list of objects that each describe a field to include.

The default is an empty list, with no optional fields included in the results.

(structure)

Information about an additional property that describes a resource, that you can optionally include in the view. This lets you view that property in search results, and filter your search results based on the value of the property.

Name -> (string)

The name of the property that is included in this view.

You can specify the following property names for this field:

• Tags

Shorthand Syntax:

Name=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "Name": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--tags (map)

Tag key and value pairs that are attached to the view.

key -> (string)

value -> (string)

Shorthand Syntax:

KeyName1=string,KeyName2=string

JSON Syntax:

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

--view-name (string)

The name of the new view. This name appears in the list of views in Resource Explorer.

The name must be no more than 64 characters long, and can include letters, digits, and the dash (-) character. The name must be unique within its Amazon Web Services Region.

--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.

Global Options

--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.
