Options

--name (string)

The fully qualified domain name for the Managed Microsoft AD directory, such as corp.example.com . This name will resolve inside your VPC only. It does not need to be publicly resolvable.

--short-name (string)

The NetBIOS name for your domain, such as CORP . If you don’t specify a NetBIOS name, it will default to the first part of your directory DNS. For example, CORP for the directory DNS corp.example.com .

--password (string)

The password for the default administrative user named Admin .

If you need to change the password for the administrator account, you can use the ResetUserPassword API call.

--description (string)

A description for the directory. This label will appear on the Amazon Web Services console Directory Details page after the directory is created.

--vpc-settings (structure)

Contains VPC information for the CreateDirectory or CreateMicrosoftAD operation.

VpcId -> (string)

The identifier of the VPC in which to create the directory.

SubnetIds -> (list)

The identifiers of the subnets for the directory servers. The two subnets must be in different Availability Zones. Directory Service creates a directory server and a DNS server in each of these subnets.

(string)

Shorthand Syntax:

VpcId=string,SubnetIds=string,string

JSON Syntax:

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

--edition (string)

Managed Microsoft AD is available in two editions: Standard and Enterprise . Enterprise is the default.

Possible values:

• Enterprise

• Standard

--tags (list)

The tags to be assigned to the Managed Microsoft AD directory.

(structure)

Metadata assigned to a directory consisting of a key-value pair.

Key -> (string)

Required name of the tag. The string value can be Unicode characters and cannot be prefixed with “aws:”. The string can contain only the set of Unicode letters, digits, white-space, ‘_’, ‘.’, ‘/’, ‘=’, ‘+’, ‘-’ (Java regex: “^([\p{L}\p{Z}\p{N}_.:/=+-]*)$”).

Value -> (string)

The optional value of the tag. The string value can be Unicode characters. The string can contain only the set of Unicode letters, digits, white-space, ‘_’, ‘.’, ‘/’, ‘=’, ‘+’, ‘-’ (Java regex: “^([\p{L}\p{Z}\p{N}_.:/=+-]*)$”).

Shorthand Syntax:

Key=string,Value=string ...

JSON Syntax:

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

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.

Output

DirectoryId -> (string)

The identifier of the directory that was created.
