create-environment
Description
Deploy a new environment. An Proton environment is created from an environment template that defines infrastructure and resources that can be shared across services.
- Amazon Web Services-managed provisioning: Proton makes direct calls to provision your resources.
- Self-managed provisioning: Proton makes pull requests on your repository to provide compiled infrastructure as code (IaC) files that your IaC engine uses to provision resources.
For more information, see Environments and Provisioning methods in the Proton User Guide .

Options
--codebuild-role-arn (string)
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the IAM service role that allows Proton to provision infrastructure using CodeBuild-based provisioning on your behalf.
To use CodeBuild-based provisioning for the environment or for any service instance running in the environment, specify either the environmentAccountConnectionId or codebuildRoleArn parameter.
--component-role-arn (string)
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the IAM service role that Proton uses when provisioning directly defined components in this environment. It determines the scope of infrastructure that a component can provision.
You must specify componentRoleArn to allow directly defined components to be associated with this environment.
For more information about components, see Proton components in the Proton User Guide .
--description (string)
--environment-account-connection-id (string)
The ID of the environment account connection that you provide if you’re provisioning your environment infrastructure resources to an environment account. For more information, see Environment account connections in the Proton User guide .
To use Amazon Web Services-managed provisioning for the environment, specify either the environmentAccountConnectionId or protonServiceRoleArn parameter and omit the provisioningRepository parameter.
--name (string)
--proton-service-role-arn (string)
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Proton service role that allows Proton to make calls to other services on your behalf.
To use Amazon Web Services-managed provisioning for the environment, specify either the environmentAccountConnectionId or protonServiceRoleArn parameter and omit the provisioningRepository parameter.
--provisioning-repository (structure)
The linked repository that you use to host your rendered infrastructure templates for self-managed provisioning. A linked repository is a repository that has been registered with Proton. For more information, see CreateRepository .
To use self-managed provisioning for the environment, specify this parameter and omit the environmentAccountConnectionId and protonServiceRoleArn parameters.
branch -> (string)
name -> (string)
provider -> (string)
Shorthand Syntax:
branch=string,name=string,provider=string
JSON Syntax:
{
"branch": "string",
"name": "string",
"provider": "GITHUB"|"GITHUB_ENTERPRISE"|"BITBUCKET"
}
--spec (string)
--tags (list)
An optional list of metadata items that you can associate with the Proton environment. A tag is a key-value pair.
For more information, see Proton resources and tagging in the Proton User Guide .
(structure)
A description of a resource tag.

--template-major-version (string)
--template-minor-version (string)
--template-name (string)
--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.
