Synopsis

Calls the Amazon Rekognition AssociateFaces API operation.

Syntax

Add-REKREKFacesToUser
-CollectionId <String>
-ClientRequestToken <String>
-FaceId <String[]>
-UserId <String>
-UserMatchThreshold <Single>
-Select <String>
-Force <SwitchParameter>
-ClientConfig <AmazonRekognitionConfig>

Description

Associates one or more faces with an existing UserID. Takes an array of FaceIds. Each FaceId that are present in the FaceIds list is associated with the provided UserID. The number of FaceIds that can be used as input in a single request is limited to 100. Note that the total number of faces that can be associated with a single UserID is also limited to 100. Once a UserID has 100 faces associated with it, no additional faces can be added. If more API calls are made after the limit is reached, a ServiceQuotaExceededException will result. The UserMatchThreshold parameter specifies the minimum user match confidence required for the face to be associated with a UserID that has at least one FaceID already associated. This ensures that the FaceIds are associated with the right UserID. The value ranges from 0-100 and default value is 75. If successful, an array of AssociatedFace objects containing the associated FaceIds is returned. If a given face is already associated with the given UserID, it will be ignored and will not be returned in the response. If a given face is already associated to a different UserID, isn't found in the collection, doesn’t meet the UserMatchThreshold, or there are already 100 faces associated with the UserID, it will be returned as part of an array of UnsuccessfulFaceAssociations. The UserStatus reflects the status of an operation which updates a UserID representation with a list of given faces. The UserStatus can be:
  • ACTIVE - All associations or disassociations of FaceID(s) for a UserID are complete.
  • CREATED - A UserID has been created, but has no FaceID(s) associated with it.
  • UPDATING - A UserID is being updated and there are current associations or disassociations of FaceID(s) taking place.

Parameters

-ClientConfig <AmazonRekognitionConfig>
Amazon.PowerShell.Cmdlets.REK.AmazonRekognitionClientCmdlet.ClientConfig
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-ClientRequestToken <String>
Idempotent token used to identify the request to AssociateFaces. If you use the same token with multiple AssociateFaces requests, the same response is returned. Use ClientRequestToken to prevent the same request from being processed more than once.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-CollectionId <String>
The ID of an existing collection containing the UserID.
Required?True
Position?1
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
-FaceId <String[]>
An array of FaceIDs to associate with the UserID. 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?True
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesFaceIds
-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)
-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.Rekognition.Model.AssociateFacesResponse). Specifying the name of a property of type Amazon.Rekognition.Model.AssociateFacesResponse 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)
-UserId <String>
The ID for the existing UserID.
Required?True
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-UserMatchThreshold <Single>
An optional value specifying the minimum confidence in the UserID match to return. The default value is 75.
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)
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
