CreateDataSource
Creates a data source that you want to use with an Amazon Kendra index.
You specify a name, data source connector type and description for your data source. You also specify configuration information for the data source connector.
CreateDataSource is a synchronous operation. The
operation returns 200 if the data source was successfully created.
Otherwise, an exception is raised.
Amazon S3 and custom data sources are the only supported data sources in the AWS GovCloud (US-West) region.
