# CreateObservabilityConfiguration
<a name="API_CreateObservabilityConfiguration"></a>

**Important**  
 AWS App Runner will no longer be open to new customers starting March 31, 2026. If you would like to use App Runner, sign up prior to that date. Existing customers can continue to use the service as normal. For more information, see [AWS App Runner availability change](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/apprunner/latest/dg/apprunner-availability-change.html).

Create an AWS App Runner observability configuration resource. App Runner requires this resource when you create or update App Runner services and you want to enable non-default observability features. You can share an observability configuration across multiple services.

Create multiple revisions of a configuration by calling this action multiple times using the same `ObservabilityConfigurationName`. The call returns incremental `ObservabilityConfigurationRevision` values. When you create a service and configure an observability configuration resource, the service uses the latest active revision of the observability configuration by default. You can optionally configure the service to use a specific revision.

The observability configuration resource is designed to configure multiple features (currently one feature, tracing). This action takes optional parameters that describe the configuration of these features (currently one parameter, `TraceConfiguration`). If you don't specify a feature parameter, App Runner doesn't enable the feature.

## Request Syntax

```
{
   "ObservabilityConfigurationName": "string",
   "Tags": [ 
      { 
         "Key": "string",
         "Value": "string"
      }
   ],
   "TraceConfiguration": { 
      "Vendor": "string"
   }
}
```

## Request Parameters
<a name="API_CreateObservabilityConfiguration_RequestParameters"></a>

For information about the parameters that are common to all actions, see [Common Parameters](CommonParameters.md).

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

 ** [ObservabilityConfigurationName](#API_CreateObservabilityConfiguration_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="apprunner-CreateObservabilityConfiguration-request-ObservabilityConfigurationName"></a>
A name for the observability configuration. When you use it for the first time in an AWS Region, App Runner creates revision number `1` of this name. When you use the same name in subsequent calls, App Runner creates incremental revisions of the configuration.  
The name `DefaultConfiguration` is reserved. You can't use it to create a new observability configuration, and you can't create a revision of it.  
When you want to use your own observability configuration for your App Runner service, *create a configuration with a different name*, and then provide it when you create or update your service.
Type: String  
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 4. Maximum length of 32.  
Pattern: `[A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9\-_]{3,31}`   
Required: Yes

 ** [Tags](#API_CreateObservabilityConfiguration_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="apprunner-CreateObservabilityConfiguration-request-Tags"></a>
A list of metadata items that you can associate with your observability configuration resource. A tag is a key-value pair.  
Type: Array of [Tag](API_Tag.md) objects  
Required: No

 ** [TraceConfiguration](#API_CreateObservabilityConfiguration_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="apprunner-CreateObservabilityConfiguration-request-TraceConfiguration"></a>
The configuration of the tracing feature within this observability configuration. If you don't specify it, App Runner doesn't enable tracing.  
Type: [TraceConfiguration](API_TraceConfiguration.md) object  
Required: No

## Response Syntax

## Examples
<a name="API_CreateObservabilityConfiguration_Examples"></a>

### Create an observability configuration to enable X-Ray tracing
<a name="API_CreateObservabilityConfiguration_Example_1"></a>

This example illustrates how to create an observability configuration that enables tracing using AWS X-Ray.

The call returns an `ObservabilityConfiguration` object. In the example, this is the first call to create a configuration named `xray-tracing`. The revision is set to `1`, and it's the latest revision.

#### Sample Request
<a name="API_CreateObservabilityConfiguration_Example_1_Request"></a>

```
$ aws apprunner create-observability-configuration --cli-input-json "`cat`"
{
  "ObservabilityConfigurationName": "xray-tracing",
  "TraceConfiguration": {
    "Vendor": "AWSXRAY"
  }
}
```

#### Sample Response
<a name="API_CreateObservabilityConfiguration_Example_1_Response"></a>

```
{
  "ObservabilityConfiguration": {
    "ObservabilityConfigurationArn": "arn:aws:apprunner:us-east-1:123456789012:observabilityconfiguration/xray-tracing/1/2f50e7656d7819fead0f59672e68042e",
    "ObservabilityConfigurationName": "xray-tracing",
    "ObservabilityConfigurationRevision": 1,
    "CreatedAt": "2020-11-03T00:29:17Z",
    "Latest": true,
    "Status": "ACTIVE",
    "TraceConfiguration": {
        "Vendor": "AWSXRAY"
    }
  }
}
```
