create-connector-profile
Description
Creates a new connector profile associated with your Amazon Web Services account. There is a soft quota of 100 connector profiles per Amazon Web Services account. If you need more connector profiles than this quota allows, you can submit a request to the Amazon AppFlow team through the Amazon AppFlow support channel. In each connector profile that you create, you can provide the credentials and properties for only one connector.

--connector-label (string)
ConnectorRegistration in your Amazon Web Services account. Only needed if calling for CUSTOMCONNECTOR connector type/.--connection-mode (string)
Indicates the connection mode and specifies whether it is public or private. Private flows use Amazon Web Services PrivateLink to route data over Amazon Web Services infrastructure without exposing it to the public internet.
Possible values:
PublicPrivate
--connector-profile-config (structure)
Defines the connector-specific configuration and credentials.

workgroupName -> (string)
databaseName -> (string)
Salesforce -> (structure)
The connector-specific properties required by Salesforce.
instanceUrl -> (string)
isSandboxEnvironment -> (boolean)
usePrivateLinkForMetadataAndAuthorization -> (boolean)
If the connection mode for the connector profile is private, this parameter sets whether Amazon AppFlow uses the private network to send metadata and authorization calls to Salesforce. Amazon AppFlow sends private calls through Amazon Web Services PrivateLink. These calls travel through Amazon Web Services infrastructure without being exposed to the public internet.
Set either of the following values:
Amazon AppFlow sends all calls to Salesforce over the private network.
These private calls are:
-
Calls to get metadata about your Salesforce records. This metadata describes your Salesforce objects and their fields.
-
Calls to get or refresh access tokens that allow Amazon AppFlow to access your Salesforce records.
-
Calls to transfer your Salesforce records as part of a flow run.
false
The default value. Amazon AppFlow sends some calls to Salesforce privately and other calls over the public internet.
The public calls are:
- Calls to get metadata about your Salesforce records.
- Calls to get or refresh access tokens.
The private calls are:
- Calls to transfer your Salesforce records as part of a flow run.
ServiceNow -> (structure)
The connector-specific properties required by serviceNow.
instanceUrl -> (string)
Singular -> (structure)
Slack -> (structure)
The connector-specific properties required by Slack.

The SAPOData OAuth properties required for OAuth type authentication.
tokenUrl -> (string)
authCodeUrl -> (string)
oAuthScopes -> (list)
The OAuth scopes required for OAuth type authentication.
(string)
disableSSO -> (boolean)
If you set this parameter to true , Amazon AppFlow bypasses the single sign-on (SSO) settings in your SAP account when it accesses your SAP OData instance.
Whether you need this option depends on the types of credentials that you applied to your SAP OData connection profile. If your profile uses basic authentication credentials, SAP SSO can prevent Amazon AppFlow from connecting to your account with your username and password. In this case, bypassing SSO makes it possible for Amazon AppFlow to connect successfully. However, if your profile uses OAuth credentials, this parameter has no affect.
CustomConnector -> (structure)
The properties required by the custom connector.
profileProperties -> (map)
A map of properties that are required to create a profile for the custom connector.

You can specify one of the following values:
Amazon AppFlow passes an authorization code when it requests the access token from Salesforce. Amazon AppFlow receives the authorization code from Salesforce after you log in to your Salesforce account and authorize Amazon AppFlow to access your records.
Amazon AppFlow passes a JSON web token (JWT) when it requests the access token from Salesforce. You provide the JWT to Amazon AppFlow when you define the connection to your Salesforce account. When you use this grant type, you don’t need to log in to your Salesforce account to authorize Amazon AppFlow to access your records.

--client-token (string)
The clientToken parameter is an idempotency token. It ensures that your CreateConnectorProfile request completes only once. You choose the value to pass. For example, if you don’t receive a response from your request, you can safely retry the request with the same clientToken parameter value.
If you omit a clientToken value, the Amazon Web Services SDK that you are using inserts a value for you. This way, the SDK can safely retry requests multiple times after a network error. You must provide your own value for other use cases.
If you specify input parameters that differ from your first request, an error occurs. If you use a different value for clientToken , Amazon AppFlow considers it a new call to CreateConnectorProfile . The token is active for 8 hours.
--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.
--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.
Global Options
--debug (boolean)
Turn on debug logging.
--endpoint-url (string)
Override command’s default URL with the given URL.
--no-verify-ssl (boolean)
By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.
--no-paginate (boolean)
Disable automatic pagination. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.
--output (string)
The formatting style for command output.
- json
- text
- table
- yaml
- yaml-stream
--query (string)
A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.
--profile (string)
Use a specific profile from your credential file.
--region (string)
The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.
--version (string)
Display the version of this tool.
--color (string)
Turn on/off color output.
- on
- off
- auto
--no-sign-request (boolean)
Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.
--ca-bundle (string)
The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.
--cli-read-timeout (int)
The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.
--cli-connect-timeout (int)
The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.
--cli-binary-format (string)
The formatting style to be used for binary blobs. The default format is base64. The base64 format expects binary blobs to be provided as a base64 encoded string. The raw-in-base64-out format preserves compatibility with AWS CLI V1 behavior and binary values must be passed literally. When providing contents from a file that map to a binary blob fileb:// will always be treated as binary and use the file contents directly regardless of the cli-binary-format setting. When using file:// the file contents will need to properly formatted for the configured cli-binary-format.
- base64
- raw-in-base64-out
--no-cli-pager (boolean)
Disable cli pager for output.
--cli-auto-prompt (boolean)
Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.
--no-cli-auto-prompt (boolean)
Disable automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.
