Operation

create_agent_action_group async

create_agent_action_group(input: CreateAgentActionGroupInput, plugins: list[Plugin] | None = None) -> CreateAgentActionGroupOutput

Creates an action group for an agent. An action group represents the actions that an agent can carry out for the customer by defining the APIs that an agent can call and the logic for calling them.

To allow your agent to request the user for additional information when trying to complete a task, add an action group with the parentActionGroupSignature field set to AMAZON.UserInput.

To allow your agent to generate, run, and troubleshoot code when trying to complete a task, add an action group with the parentActionGroupSignature field set to AMAZON.CodeInterpreter.

You must leave the description, apiSchema, and actionGroupExecutor fields blank for this action group. During orchestration, if your agent determines that it needs to invoke an API in an action group, but doesn't have enough information to complete the API request, it will invoke this action group instead and return an Observation reprompting the user for more information.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
input CreateAgentActionGroupInput

An instance of CreateAgentActionGroupInput.

required
plugins list[Plugin] | None

A list of callables that modify the configuration dynamically. Changes made by these plugins only apply for the duration of the operation execution and will not affect any other operation invocations.
