Description

End of support notice: On September 10, 2025, Amazon Web Services will discontinue support for Amazon Web Services RoboMaker. After September 10, 2025, you will no longer be able to access the Amazon Web Services RoboMaker console or Amazon Web Services RoboMaker resources. For more information on transitioning to Batch to help run containerized simulations, visit https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/hpc/run-simulations-using-multiple-containers-in-a-single-aws-batch-job/. Creates a simulation job. After 90 days, simulation jobs expire and will be deleted. They will no longer be accessible.

Leaves the instance running for its maximum timeout duration after a 4XX error code.
Fail
Stop the simulation job and terminate the instance.
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)
-IamRole <String>
The IAM role name that allows the simulation instance to call the AWS APIs that are specified in its associated policies on your behalf. This is how credentials are passed in to your simulation job.
Required?True
Position?1
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
-LoggingConfig_RecordAllRosTopic <Boolean>
A boolean indicating whether to record all ROS topics.This API is no longer supported and will throw an error if used.This parameter is deprecated.
Required?False

Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesLoggingConfig_RecordAllRosTopics
-MaxJobDurationInSecond <Int64>
The maximum simulation job duration in seconds (up to 14 days or 1,209,600 seconds. When maxJobDurationInSeconds is reached, the simulation job will status will transition to Completed.
Required?True
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesMaxJobDurationInSeconds
-OutputLocation <OutputLocation>
Location for output files generated by the simulation job.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-PassThru <SwitchParameter>
Changes the cmdlet behavior to return the value passed to the IamRole parameter. The -PassThru parameter is deprecated, use -Select '^IamRole' instead. This parameter will be removed in a future version.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-RobotApplication <RobotApplicationConfig[]>
The robot application to use in the simulation job.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesRobotApplications
-Select <String>
Use the -Select parameter to control the cmdlet output. The default value is '*'. Specifying -Select '*' will result in the cmdlet returning the whole service response (Amazon.RoboMaker.Model.CreateSimulationJobResponse). Specifying the name of a property of type Amazon.RoboMaker.Model.CreateSimulationJobResponse will result in that property being returned. Specifying -Select '^ParameterName' will result in the cmdlet returning the selected cmdlet parameter value.
Required?False

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)
AliasesStoredCredentials, AWSProfileName
-Region <Object>
The system name of an AWS region or an AWSRegion instance. This governs the endpoint that will be used when calling service operations. Note that the AWS resources referenced in a call are usually region-specific.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesRegionToCall
-SecretKey <String>
The AWS secret key for the user account. This can be a temporary secret key if the corresponding session token is supplied to the -SessionToken parameter.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesSK, SecretAccessKey
-SessionToken <String>
The session token if the access and secret keys are temporary session-based credentials.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesST
