# InstantiateSolNetworkInstance
<a name="API_InstantiateSolNetworkInstance"></a>

Instantiates a network instance.

A network instance is a single network created in AWS TNB that can be deployed and on which life-cycle operations (like terminate, update, and delete) can be performed.

Before you can instantiate a network instance, you have to create a network instance. For more information, see [CreateSolNetworkInstance](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/tnb/latest/APIReference/API_CreateSolNetworkInstance.html).

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

The request uses the following URI parameters.

 ** [dryRun](#API_InstantiateSolNetworkInstance_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="TNB-InstantiateSolNetworkInstance-request-uri-dryRun"></a>
A check for 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`.

 ** [nsInstanceId](#API_InstantiateSolNetworkInstance_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="TNB-InstantiateSolNetworkInstance-request-uri-nsInstanceId"></a>
ID of the network instance.  
Pattern: `ni-[a-f0-9]{17}`   
Required: Yes

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

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

 ** [additionalParamsForNs](#API_InstantiateSolNetworkInstance_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="TNB-InstantiateSolNetworkInstance-request-additionalParamsForNs"></a>
Provides values for the configurable properties.  
Type: JSON value  
Required: No

 ** [tags](#API_InstantiateSolNetworkInstance_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="TNB-InstantiateSolNetworkInstance-request-tags"></a>
A tag is a label that you assign to an AWS resource. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value. When you use this API, the tags are only applied to the network operation that is created. These tags are not applied to the network instance. Use tags to search and filter your resources or track your AWS costs.

```

## Response Elements
<a name="API_InstantiateSolNetworkInstance_ResponseElements"></a>

If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 201 response.
