register-instance¶
Description¶
Registers instances that were created outside of OpsWorks Stacks with a specified stack.
Note
We do not recommend using this action to register instances. The complete registration operation includes two tasks: installing the OpsWorks Stacks agent on the instance, and registering the instance with the stack.RegisterInstance handles only the second step. You should instead use the CLI register command, which performs the entire registration operation. For more information, see Registering an Instance with an OpsWorks Stacks Stack .Registered instances have the same requirements as instances that are created by using the CreateInstance API. For example, registered instances must be running a supported Linux-based operating system, and they must have a supported instance type. For more information about requirements for instances that you want to register, see Preparing the Instance .
Required Permissions : To use this action, an IAM user must have a Manage permissions level for the stack or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information on user permissions, see Managing User Permissions .

Options¶
--stack-id (string)
The ID of the stack that the instance is to be registered with.
--hostname (string)
The instance's host name. The following are character limits for instance host names.
- Linux-based instances: 63 characters
- Windows-based instances: 15 characters
--public-ip (string)
The instance's public IP address.
--private-ip (string)
The instance's private IP address.
--rsa-public-key (string)
The instances public RSA key. This key is used to encrypt communication between the instance and the service.
--rsa-public-key-fingerprint (string)
The instances public RSA key fingerprint.
--instance-identity (structure)
An InstanceIdentity object that contains the instance's identity.
Document -> (string)
A JSON document that contains the metadata.Signature -> (string)
A signature that can be used to verify the document's accuracy and authenticity.
Shorthand Syntax:
Document=string,Signature=string
JSON Syntax:
{
"Document": "string",
"Signature": "string"
}
--cli-input-json (string)
Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI 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.
--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. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.
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. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.
--output (string)
The formatting style for command output.
- json
- text
- table
--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.
