URI Request Parameters

The request does not use any URI parameters.

Request Body

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

containerProperties

An object with properties specific to Amazon ECS-based single-node container-based jobs. If the job definition's type parameter is container, then you must specify either containerProperties or nodeProperties. This must not be specified for Amazon EKS-based job definitions.

Note

If the job runs on Fargate resources, then you must not specify nodeProperties; use only containerProperties.

Type: ContainerProperties object

Required: No

ecsProperties

An object with properties that are specific to Amazon ECS-based jobs. This must not be specified for Amazon EKS-based job definitions.

Type: EcsProperties object

Required: No

eksProperties

An object with properties that are specific to Amazon EKS-based jobs. This must not be specified for Amazon ECS based job definitions.

Type: EksProperties object

Required: No

jobDefinitionName

The name of the job definition to register. It can be up to 128 letters long. It can contain uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, hyphens (-), and underscores (_).

Type: String

Required: Yes

nodeProperties

An object with properties specific to multi-node parallel jobs. If you specify node properties for a job, it becomes a multi-node parallel job. For more information, see Multi-node Parallel Jobs in the AWS Batch User Guide.

Note

If the job runs on Fargate resources, then you must not specify nodeProperties; use containerProperties instead.

Note

If the job runs on Amazon EKS resources, then you must not specify nodeProperties.

Type: NodeProperties object

Required: No

parameters

Default parameter substitution placeholders to set in the job definition. Parameters are specified as a key-value pair mapping. Parameters in a SubmitJob request override any corresponding parameter defaults from the job definition.

Type: String to string map

Required: No

platformCapabilities

The platform capabilities required by the job definition. If no value is specified, it defaults to EC2. To run the job on Fargate resources, specify FARGATE.

Note

If the job runs on Amazon EKS resources, then you must not specify platformCapabilities.

Type: Array of strings

Valid Values: EC2 | FARGATE

Required: No

propagateTags

Specifies whether to propagate the tags from the job or job definition to the corresponding Amazon ECS task. If no value is specified, the tags are not propagated. Tags can only be propagated to the tasks during task creation. For tags with the same name, job tags are given priority over job definitions tags. If the total number of combined tags from the job and job definition is over 50, the job is moved to the FAILED state.

Note

If the job runs on Amazon EKS resources, then you must not specify propagateTags.

Type: Boolean

Required: No

retryStrategy

The retry strategy to use for failed jobs that are submitted with this job definition. Any retry strategy that's specified during a SubmitJob operation overrides the retry strategy defined here. If a job is terminated due to a timeout, it isn't retried.

Type: RetryStrategy object

Required: No

schedulingPriority

The scheduling priority for jobs that are submitted with this job definition. This only affects jobs in job queues with a fair share policy. Jobs with a higher scheduling priority are scheduled before jobs with a lower scheduling priority.

The minimum supported value is 0 and the maximum supported value is 9999.

Type: Integer

Required: No

tags

The tags that you apply to the job definition to help you categorize and organize your resources. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value. For more information, see Tagging AWS Resources in AWS Batch User Guide.

Type: String to string map

Map Entries: Maximum number of 50 items.

Key Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 128.

Value Length Constraints: Maximum length of 256.

Required: No

timeout

The timeout configuration for jobs that are submitted with this job definition, after which AWS Batch terminates your jobs if they have not finished. If a job is terminated due to a timeout, it isn't retried. The minimum value for the timeout is 60 seconds. Any timeout configuration that's specified during a SubmitJob operation overrides the timeout configuration defined here. For more information, see Job Timeouts in the AWS Batch User Guide.

Type: JobTimeout object

Required: No

type

The type of job definition. For more information about multi-node parallel jobs, see Creating a multi-node parallel job definition in the AWS Batch User Guide.

  • If the value is container, then one of the following is required: containerProperties, ecsProperties, or eksProperties.

  • If the value is multinode, then nodeProperties is required.

Note

If the job is run on Fargate resources, then multinode isn't supported.

Type: String

Valid Values: container | multinode

Required: Yes

Response Syntax

HTTP/1.1 200 Content-type: application/json { "jobDefinitionArn": "string", "jobDefinitionName": "string", "revision": number }

Response Elements

If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 200 response.

The following data is returned in JSON format by the service.

jobDefinitionArn

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the job definition.

Type: String

jobDefinitionName

The name of the job definition.

Type: String

revision

The revision of the job definition.

Type: Integer

Errors

ClientException

These errors are usually caused by a client action. One example cause is using an action or resource on behalf of a user that doesn't have permissions to use the action or resource. Another cause is specifying an identifier that's not valid.

HTTP Status Code: 400

ServerException

These errors are usually caused by a server issue.

HTTP Status Code: 500

Examples

In the following example or examples, the Authorization header contents ( [authorization-params] ) must be replaced with an AWS Signature Version 4 signature. For more information about creating these signatures, see Signature Version 4 Signing Process in the AWS General Reference.

You only need to learn how to sign HTTP requests if you intend to manually create them. When you use the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) or one of the AWS SDKs to make requests to AWS, these tools automatically sign the requests for you with the access key that you specify when you configure the tools. When you use these tools, you don't need to learn how to sign requests yourself.

Example

This example registers a job definition for a simple container job.
