Options

--aws-account-id (string)

The ID for the Amazon Web Services account where you want to create the folder.

--folder-id (string)

The ID of the folder.

--name (string)

The name of the folder.

--folder-type (string)

The type of folder. By default, folderType is SHARED .

Possible values:

• SHARED
• RESTRICTED

--parent-folder-arn (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the parent folder.

ParentFolderArn can be null. An empty parentFolderArn creates a root-level folder.

--permissions (list)

A structure that describes the principals and the resource-level permissions of a folder.

To specify no permissions, omit Permissions .

(structure)

Permission for the resource.

Principal -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the principal. This can be one of the following:

• The ARN of an Amazon QuickSight user or group associated with a data source or dataset. (This is common.)
• The ARN of an Amazon QuickSight user, group, or namespace associated with an analysis, dashboard, template, or theme. (This is common.)
• The ARN of an Amazon Web Services account root: This is an IAM ARN rather than a QuickSight ARN. Use this option only to share resources (templates) across Amazon Web Services accounts. (This is less common.)

Actions -> (list)

The IAM action to grant or revoke permissions on.

(string)

Shorthand Syntax:

Principal=string,Actions=string,string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "Principal": "string",
    "Actions": ["string", ...]
  }
  ...
]

--tags (list)

Tags for the folder.

(structure)

The key or keys of the key-value pairs for the resource tag or tags assigned to the resource.

Key -> (string)

Tag key.

Value -> (string)

Tag value.

Shorthand Syntax:

Key=string,Value=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "Key": "string",
    "Value": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--sharing-model (string)

An optional parameter that determines the sharing scope of the folder. The default value for this parameter is ACCOUNT .

Possible values:

• ACCOUNT
• NAMESPACE

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command's default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)
