CreateAppInstance

Creates an Amazon Chime SDK messaging AppInstance under an AWS account. Only SDK messaging customers use this API. CreateAppInstance supports idempotency behavior as described in the AWS API Standard.

Important

This API is no longer supported and will not be updated. We recommend using the latest version, CreateAppInstance, in the Amazon Chime SDK.

Using the latest version requires migrating to a dedicated namespace. For more information, refer to Migrating from the Amazon Chime namespace in the Amazon Chime SDK Developer Guide.
