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

The request uses the following URI parameters.

 ** [knowledgeBaseId](#API_agent_CreateDataSource_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="bedrock-agent_CreateDataSource-request-uri-knowledgeBaseId"></a>
The unique identifier of the knowledge base to which to add the data source.  
Pattern: `[0-9a-zA-Z]{10}`   
Required: Yes

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

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

 ** [clientToken](#API_agent_CreateDataSource_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="bedrock-agent_CreateDataSource-request-clientToken"></a>
A unique, case-sensitive identifier to ensure that the API request completes no more than one time. If this token matches a previous request, Amazon Bedrock ignores the request, but does not return an error. For more information, see [Ensuring idempotency](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/APIReference/Run_Instance_Idempotency.html).  
Type: String  
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 33. Maximum length of 256.  
Pattern: `[a-zA-Z0-9](-*[a-zA-Z0-9]){0,256}`   
Required: No

 ** [dataDeletionPolicy](#API_agent_CreateDataSource_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="bedrock-agent_CreateDataSource-request-dataDeletionPolicy"></a>
The data deletion policy for the data source.  
You can set the data deletion policy to:  
+ DELETE: Deletes all data from your data source that’s converted into vector embeddings upon deletion of a knowledge base or data source resource. Note that the **vector store itself is not deleted**, only the data. This flag is ignored if an AWS account is deleted.
+ RETAIN: Retains all data from your data source that’s converted into vector embeddings upon deletion of a knowledge base or data source resource. Note that the **vector store itself is not deleted** if you delete a knowledge base or data source resource.
Type: String  
Valid Values: `RETAIN | DELETE`   
Required: No

 ** [dataSourceConfiguration](#API_agent_CreateDataSource_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="bedrock-agent_CreateDataSource-request-dataSourceConfiguration"></a>
The connection configuration for the data source.  
Type: [DataSourceConfiguration](API_agent_DataSourceConfiguration.md) object  
Required: Yes

 ** [description](#API_agent_CreateDataSource_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="bedrock-agent_CreateDataSource-request-description"></a>
A description of the data source.  
Type: String  
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 200.  
Required: No

 ** [name](#API_agent_CreateDataSource_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="bedrock-agent_CreateDataSource-request-name"></a>
The name of the data source.  
Type: String  
Pattern: `([0-9a-zA-Z][_-]?){1,100}`   
Required: Yes

 ** [serverSideEncryptionConfiguration](#API_agent_CreateDataSource_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="bedrock-agent_CreateDataSource-request-serverSideEncryptionConfiguration"></a>
Contains details about the server-side encryption for the data source.  
Type: [ServerSideEncryptionConfiguration](API_agent_ServerSideEncryptionConfiguration.md) object  
Required: No

 ** [vectorIngestionConfiguration](#API_agent_CreateDataSource_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="bedrock-agent_CreateDataSource-request-vectorIngestionConfiguration"></a>
Contains details about how to ingest the documents in the data source.  
Type: [VectorIngestionConfiguration](API_agent_VectorIngestionConfiguration.md) object  
Required: No
