CreateImageBuilderCommand

Creates an image builder. An image builder is a virtual machine that is used to create an image.

The initial state of the builder is PENDING. When it is ready, the state is RUNNING.

Example Syntax

Use a bare-bones client and the command you need to make an API call.

Name
Required
string | undefined

A unique name for the image builder.

AccessEndpoints
AccessEndpoint[] | undefined

The list of interface VPC endpoint (interface endpoint) objects. Administrators can connect to the image builder only through the specified endpoints.

AppstreamAgentVersion
string | undefined

The version of the AppStream 2.0 agent to use for this image builder. To use the latest version of the AppStream 2.0 agent, specify [LATEST].

Description
string | undefined

The description to display.

DisplayName
string | undefined

The image builder name to display.

DomainJoinInfo
DomainJoinInfo | undefined

The name of the directory and organizational unit (OU) to use to join the image builder to a Microsoft Active Directory domain.

EnableDefaultInternetAccess
boolean | undefined

Enables or disables default internet access for the image builder.

IamRoleArn
string | undefined

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the IAM role to apply to the image builder. To assume a role, the image builder calls the AWS Security Token Service (STS) AssumeRole API operation and passes the ARN of the role to use. The operation creates a new session with temporary credentials. AppStream 2.0 retrieves the temporary credentials and creates the appstream_machine_role credential profile on the instance.

For more information, see Using an IAM Role to Grant Permissions to Applications and Scripts Running on AppStream 2.0 Streaming Instances  in the Amazon AppStream 2.0 Administration Guide.

ImageArn
string | undefined

The ARN of the public, private, or shared image to use.

ImageName
string | undefined

The name of the image used to create the image builder.

Tags
Record<string, string> | undefined

The tags to associate with the image builder. A tag is a key-value pair, and the value is optional. For example, Environment=Test. If you do not specify a value, Environment=.

Generally allowed characters are: letters, numbers, and spaces representable in UTF-8, and the following special characters:

_ . : / = + -

If you do not specify a value, the value is set to an empty string.

For more information about tags, see Tagging Your Resources  in the Amazon AppStream 2.0 Administration Guide.
