Synopsis

Calls the EC2 Image Builder ImportComponent API operation.

Syntax

-Name <String>
-ChangeDescription <String>
-Data <String>
-Description <String>
-Format <ComponentFormat>
-KmsKeyId <String>
-Platform <Platform>
-SemanticVersion <String>
-Tag <Hashtable>
-Type <ComponentType>
-Uri <String>
-ClientToken <String>
-Select <String>
-Force <SwitchParameter>
-ClientConfig <AmazonImagebuilderConfig>

Description

Imports a component and transforms its data into a component document. For the SHELL format, Image Builder wraps your script in a component document with a single step that runs the script.

Parameters

-ChangeDescription <String>
The change description of the component. This description indicates the change that has been made in this version, or what makes this version different from other versions of the component.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-ClientConfig <AmazonImagebuilderConfig>
Amazon.PowerShell.Cmdlets.EC2IB.AmazonImagebuilderClientCmdlet.ClientConfig
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-ClientToken <String>
A unique, case-sensitive identifier you provide to ensure that the operation runs no more than one time. If you retry a request with the same client token, Image Builder returns the original response without running the operation again. For more information, see Ensuring idempotency in the Amazon EC2 API Reference.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Data <String>
The data of the component. For the SHELL format, this is the plain script content. You must specify exactly one of the data or uri properties. For scripts that exceed the inline length constraint, use the uri property.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Description <String>
The description of the component. Describes the contents of the component.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Force <SwitchParameter>
This parameter overrides confirmation prompts to force the cmdlet to continue its operation. This parameter should always be used with caution.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Format <ComponentFormat>
The format of the resource that you want to import as a component.
Required?True
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-KmsKeyId <String>
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the KMS key that is used to encrypt this component. This can be either the Key ARN or the Alias ARN. For more information, see Key identifiers (KeyId) in the Key Management Service Developer Guide. If you don't specify a key, Image Builder encrypts the component data with a KMS key that Image Builder owns.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Name <String>
The name of the component. Image Builder generates the component ARN from a normalized form of the name, so names that differ only in case, spaces, or underscores count as the same name. If a component with the same name and semantic version already exists in your account in the same Amazon Web Services Region, the request creates a new build version for it. If the content is also identical to the latest build version, the request fails because the component already exists.
Required?True
Position?1
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
-Platform <Platform>
The platform of the component.
Required?True
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Select <String>
Use the -Select parameter to control the cmdlet output. The default value is 'ComponentBuildVersionArn'. Specifying -Select '*' will result in the cmdlet returning the whole service response (Amazon.Imagebuilder.Model.ImportComponentResponse). Specifying the name of a property of type Amazon.Imagebuilder.Model.ImportComponentResponse will result in that property being returned. Specifying -Select '^ParameterName' will result in the cmdlet returning the selected cmdlet parameter value.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-SemanticVersion <String>
The semantic version of the component. This version follows the semantic version syntax.The semantic version has four nodes: <major>.<minor>.<patch>/<build>. You can assign values for the first three, and can filter on all of them.Assignment: For the first three nodes, you can assign any positive integer value, including zero. The upper limit is 2^30-1, or 1073741823, for each node. Image Builder automatically assigns the build number to the fourth node.Patterns: You can use any numeric pattern that adheres to the assignment requirements for the nodes that you can assign. For example, you might choose a software version pattern, such as 1.0.0, or a date, such as 2021.01.01.
Required?True
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Tag <Hashtable>
The tags of the component. Starting with version 4 of the SDK this property will default to null. If no data for this property is returned from the service the property will also be null. This was changed to improve performance and allow the SDK and caller to distinguish between a property not set or a property being empty to clear out a value. To retain the previous SDK behavior set the AWSConfigs.InitializeCollections static property to true.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesTags
-Type <ComponentType>
The type of the component denotes whether the component is used to build the image, or only to test it.
Required?True
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Uri <String>
The uri of the component. Must be an Amazon S3 URL and you must have permission to access the Amazon S3 bucket. If you use Amazon S3, you can specify component content up to your service quota. Either data or uri can be used to specify the data within the component.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)

Common Credential and Region Parameters

-AccessKey <String>
The AWS access key for the user account. This can be a temporary access key if the corresponding session token is supplied to the -SessionToken parameter.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesAK
-Credential <AWSCredentials>
An AWSCredentials object instance containing access and secret key information, and optionally a token for session-based credentials.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
-EndpointUrl <String>
The endpoint to make the call against.Note: This parameter is primarily for internal AWS use and is not required/should not be specified for normal usage. The cmdlets normally determine which endpoint to call based on the region specified to the -Region parameter or set as default in the shell (via Set-DefaultAWSRegion). Only specify this parameter if you must direct the call to a specific custom endpoint.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-NetworkCredential <PSCredential>
Used with SAML-based authentication when ProfileName references a SAML role profile. Contains the network credentials to be supplied during authentication with the configured identity provider's endpoint. This parameter is not required if the user's default network identity can or should be used during authentication.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
-ProfileLocation <String>
Used to specify the name and location of the ini-format credential file (shared with the AWS CLI and other AWS SDKs)If this optional parameter is omitted this cmdlet will search the encrypted credential file used by the AWS SDK for .NET and AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio first. If the profile is not found then the cmdlet will search in the ini-format credential file at the default location: (user's home directory)\.aws\credentials.If this parameter is specified then this cmdlet will only search the ini-format credential file at the location given.As the current folder can vary in a shell or during script execution it is advised that you use specify a fully qualified path instead of a relative path.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesAWSProfilesLocation, ProfilesLocation
-ProfileName <String>
The user-defined name of an AWS credentials or SAML-based role profile containing credential information. The profile is expected to be found in the secure credential file shared with the AWS SDK for .NET and AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio. You can also specify the name of a profile stored in the .ini-format credential file used with the AWS CLI and other AWS SDKs.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
