# CreateDomain
<a name="API_CreateDomain"></a>

 Creates a domain. CodeArtifact *domains* make it easier to manage multiple repositories across an organization. You can use a domain to apply permissions across many repositories owned by different AWS accounts. An asset is stored only once in a domain, even if it's in multiple repositories. 

Although you can have multiple domains, we recommend a single production domain that contains all published artifacts so that your development teams can find and share packages. You can use a second pre-production domain to test changes to the production domain configuration. 

## Request Syntax
<a name="API_CreateDomain_RequestSyntax"></a>

```
POST /v1/domain?domain=domain HTTP/1.1
Content-type: application/json

{
   "encryptionKey": "string",
   "tags": [ 
      { 
         "key": "string",
         "value": "string"
      }
   ]
}
```

## URI Request Parameters
<a name="API_CreateDomain_RequestParameters"></a>

The request uses the following URI parameters.

 ** [domain](#API_CreateDomain_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="codeartifact-CreateDomain-request-uri-domain"></a>
 The name of the domain to create. All domain names in an AWS Region that are in the same AWS account must be unique. The domain name is used as the prefix in DNS hostnames. Do not use sensitive information in a domain name because it is publicly discoverable.   
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 2. Maximum length of 50.  
Pattern: `[a-z][a-z0-9\-]{0,48}[a-z0-9]`   
Required: Yes

## Request Body
<a name="API_CreateDomain_RequestBody"></a>

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

 ** [encryptionKey](#API_CreateDomain_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="codeartifact-CreateDomain-request-encryptionKey"></a>
 The encryption key for the domain. This is used to encrypt content stored in a domain. An encryption key can be a key ID, a key Amazon Resource Name (ARN), a key alias, or a key alias ARN. To specify an `encryptionKey`, your IAM role must have `kms:DescribeKey` and `kms:CreateGrant` permissions on the encryption key that is used. For more information, see [DescribeKey](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/APIReference/API_DescribeKey.html#API_DescribeKey_RequestSyntax) in the * AWS Key Management Service API Reference* and [AWS Key Management Service API Permissions Reference](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/kms-api-permissions-reference.html) in the * AWS Key Management Service Developer Guide*.   
 CodeArtifact supports only symmetric CMKs. Do not associate an asymmetric CMK with your domain. For more information, see [Using symmetric and asymmetric keys](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/symmetric-asymmetric.html) in the * AWS Key Management Service Developer Guide*. 
Type: String  
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 1011.  
Pattern: `\S+`   
Required: No

 ** [tags](#API_CreateDomain_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="codeartifact-CreateDomain-request-tags"></a>
One or more tag key-value pairs for the domain.  
Type: Array of [Tag](API_Tag.md) objects  
Array Members: Minimum number of 0 items. Maximum number of 200 items.  
Required: No
