Properties

Commitment

The length of the term of your reserved queue pricing plan commitment.

CreateQueueRequest

Create an on-demand queue by sending a CreateQueue request with the name of the queue. Create a reserved queue by sending a CreateQueue request with the pricing plan set to RESERVED and with values specified for the settings under reservationPlanSettings. When you create a reserved queue, you enter into a 12-month commitment to purchase the RTS that you specify. You can't cancel this commitment.

Property	Type	Required	Description
`concurrentJobs`	integer Format: int64	False	Specify the maximum number of jobs your queue can process concurrently. For on-demand queues, the value you enter is constrained by your service quotas for Maximum concurrent jobs, per on-demand queue and Maximum concurrent jobs, per account. For reserved queues, specify the number of jobs you can process concurrently in your reservation plan instead.
`description`	string	False	Optional. A description of the queue that you are creating.
`name`	string	True	The name of the queue that you are creating.
`pricingPlan`	PricingPlan	False	Specifies whether the pricing plan for the queue is on-demand or reserved. For on-demand, you pay per minute, billed in increments of .01 minute. For reserved, you pay for the transcoding capacity of the entire queue, regardless of how much or how little you use it. Reserved pricing requires a 12-month commitment. When you use the API to create a queue, the default is on-demand.
`reservationPlanSettings`	ReservationPlanSettings	False	Details about the pricing plan for your reserved queue. Required for reserved queues and not applicable to on-demand queues.
`status`	QueueStatus	False	Initial state of the queue. If you create a paused queue, then jobs in that queue won't begin.
`tags`	object	False	The tags that you want to add to the resource. You can tag resources with a key-value pair or with only a key.

CreateQueueResponse

Successful create queue requests return the name of the queue that you just created and information about it.

Property	Type	Required	Description
`queue`	Queue	False	You can use queues to manage the resources that are available to your AWS account for running multiple transcoding jobs at the same time. If you don't specify a queue, the service sends all jobs through the default queue. For more information, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/mediaconvert/latest/ug/working-with-queues.html.

ExceptionBody

Property	Type	Required	Description

`maxResults`	integer Format: int32 Minimum: 1 Maximum: 20	False	Optional. Number of queues, up to twenty, that will be returned at one time.
`nextToken`	string	False	Use this string, provided with the response to a previous request, to request the next batch of queues.
`order`	Order	False	Optional. When you request lists of resources, you can specify whether they are sorted in ASCENDING or DESCENDING order. Default varies by resource.

ListQueuesResponse

Successful list queues requests return a JSON array of queues. If you don't specify how they are ordered, you will receive them alphabetically by name.

Property	Type	Required	Description

`queues`	Array of type Queue	False	List of queues.
`totalConcurrentJobs`	integer Format: int64	False	The maximum number of jobs that MediaConvert can process at one time, across all of your on-demand queues in the current AWS Region.
`unallocatedConcurrentJobs`	integer Format: int64	False	The remaining number of concurrent jobs that are not associated with a queue and are available to allocate to a queue. You can allocate these jobs when you create or update a queue.

Order
