type name:

string

param name:

The name of the environment to create.

This name is visible to other IAM users in the same Amazon Web Services account.

type description:

type imageId:

string

param imageId:

The identifier for the Amazon Machine Image (AMI) that's used to create the EC2 instance. To choose an AMI for the instance, you must specify a valid AMI alias or a valid Amazon EC2 Systems Manager (SSM) path.

The default AMI is used if the parameter isn't explicitly assigned a value in the request. Because Amazon Linux AMI has ended standard support as of December 31, 2020, we recommend you choose Amazon Linux 2, which includes long term support through 2023.

AMI aliases

  • Amazon Linux (default): amazonlinux-1-x86_64

  • Amazon Linux 2: amazonlinux-2-x86_64

  • Ubuntu 18.04: ubuntu-18.04-x86_64
