create_launch_template_version

Operation

create_launch_template_version async

create_launch_template_version(input: CreateLaunchTemplateVersionInput, plugins: list[Plugin] | None = None) -> CreateLaunchTemplateVersionOutput

Creates a new version of a launch template. You must specify an existing launch template, either by name or ID. You can determine whether the new version inherits parameters from a source version, and add or overwrite parameters as needed.

Launch template versions are numbered in the order in which they are created. You can't specify, change, or replace the numbering of launch template versions.

Launch templates are immutable; after you create a launch template, you can't modify it. Instead, you can create a new version of the launch template that includes the changes that you require.

For more information, see Modify a launch template (manage launch template versions) in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
input CreateLaunchTemplateVersionInput

An instance of CreateLaunchTemplateVersionInput.

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.

None

Returns:

Type Description
CreateLaunchTemplateVersionOutput

An instance of CreateLaunchTemplateVersionOutput.

Input

CreateLaunchTemplateVersionInput dataclass

Bases: _SerdeShape

Dataclass for CreateLaunchTemplateVersionInput structure.

Attributes

client_token class-attribute instance-attribute
client_token: str | None = ...

Unique, case-sensitive identifier you provide to ensure the idempotency of the request. If a client token isn't specified, a randomly generated token is used in the request to ensure idempotency.

For more information, see Ensuring idempotency.

Constraint: Maximum 128 ASCII characters.

This field is autopopulated if not provided.

dry_run class-attribute instance-attribute
dry_run: bool | None = ...

Checks whether you have the required permissions for the action, without actually making the request, and provides an error response. If you have the required permissions, the error response is DryRunOperation. Otherwise, it is UnauthorizedOperation.

launch_template_data class-attribute instance-attribute
launch_template_data: RequestLaunchTemplateData | None = ...

The information for the launch template.

launch_template_id class-attribute instance-attribute
launch_template_id: str | None = ...

The ID of the launch template.

You must specify either the launch template ID or the launch template name, but not both.

launch_template_name class-attribute instance-attribute
launch_template_name: str | None = ...

The name of the launch template.

You must specify either the launch template ID or the launch template name, but not both.

resolve_alias class-attribute instance-attribute
resolve_alias: bool | None = ...

If true, and if a Systems Manager parameter is specified for ImageId, the AMI ID is displayed in the response for imageID. For more information, see Use a Systems Manager parameter instead of an AMI ID in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.

Default: false

source_version class-attribute instance-attribute
source_version: str | None = ...

The version of the launch template on which to base the new version. Snapshots applied to the block device mapping are ignored when creating a new version unless they are explicitly included.

If you specify this parameter, the new version inherits the launch parameters from the source version. If you specify additional launch parameters for the new version, they overwrite any corresponding launch parameters inherited from the source version.

If you omit this parameter, the new version contains only the launch parameters that you specify for the new version.

version_description class-attribute instance-attribute
version_description: str | None = ...

A description for the version of the launch template.

Output

CreateLaunchTemplateVersionOutput dataclass

Bases: _SerdeShape

Dataclass for CreateLaunchTemplateVersionOutput structure.

Attributes

launch_template_version class-attribute instance-attribute
launch_template_version: LaunchTemplateVersion | None = ...

Information about the launch template version.

response_metadata class-attribute instance-attribute
response_metadata: ResponseMetadata = ...

Metadata about the response that produced this output. Use this to recover the request identifiers a service's support team needs in order to investigate a call. Members of the metadata are individually optional.

warning class-attribute instance-attribute
warning: ValidationWarning | None = ...

If the new version of the launch template contains parameters or parameter combinations that are not valid, an error code and an error message are returned for each issue that's found.
