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

The request does not use any URI parameters.

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

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

 ** [AutoCreateTasks](#API_CreateWirelessGatewayTaskDefinition_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="iotwireless-CreateWirelessGatewayTaskDefinition-request-AutoCreateTasks"></a>
Whether to automatically create tasks using this task definition for all gateways with the specified current version. If `false`, the task must me created by calling `CreateWirelessGatewayTask`.  
Type: Boolean  
Required: Yes

 ** [ClientRequestToken](#API_CreateWirelessGatewayTaskDefinition_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="iotwireless-CreateWirelessGatewayTaskDefinition-request-ClientRequestToken"></a>
Each resource must have a unique client request token. The client token is used to implement idempotency. It ensures that the request completes no more than one time. If you retry a request with the same token and the same parameters, the request will complete successfully. However, if you try to create a new resource using the same token but different parameters, an HTTP 409 conflict occurs. If you omit this value, AWS SDKs will automatically generate a unique client request. For more information about idempotency, see [Ensuring idempotency in Amazon EC2 API requests](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ec2/latest/devguide/ec2-api-idempotency.html).
