Response Structure
(dict) --
Describes an image attribute.
BlockDeviceMappings (list) --
The block device mapping entries.
(dict) --
Describes a block device mapping.
DeviceName (string) --
The device name (for example, /dev/sdh or xvdh ).
VirtualName (string) --
The virtual device name (ephemeral N). Instance store volumes are numbered starting from 0. An instance type with 2 available instance store volumes can specify mappings for ephemeral0 and ephemeral1 . The number of available instance store volumes depends on the instance type. After you connect to the instance, you must mount the volume.
NVMe instance store volumes are automatically enumerated and assigned a device name. Including them in your block device mapping has no effect.
Constraints: For M3 instances, you must specify instance store volumes in the block device mapping for the instance. When you launch an M3 instance, we ignore any instance store volumes specified in the block device mapping for the AMI.
Ebs (dict) --
Parameters used to automatically set up EBS volumes when the instance is launched.
DeleteOnTermination (boolean) --
Indicates whether the EBS volume is deleted on instance termination. For more information, see Preserving Amazon EBS volumes on instance termination in the Amazon EC2 User Guide .
Iops (integer) --
The number of I/O operations per second (IOPS). For gp3 , io1 , and io2 volumes, this represents the number of IOPS that are provisioned for the volume. For gp2 volumes, this represents the baseline performance of the volume and the rate at which the volume accumulates I/O credits for bursting.
The following are the supported values for each volume type:
gp3 : 3,000-16,000 IOPS
io1 : 100-64,000 IOPS
io2 : 100-64,000 IOPS
For io1 and io2 volumes, we guarantee 64,000 IOPS only for Instances built on the Nitro System . Other instance families guarantee performance up to 32,000 IOPS.
This parameter is required for io1 and io2 volumes. The default for gp3 volumes is 3,000 IOPS. This parameter is not supported for gp2 , st1 , sc1 , or standard volumes.
SnapshotId (string) --
The ID of the snapshot.
VolumeSize (integer) --
The size of the volume, in GiBs. You must specify either a snapshot ID or a volume size. If you specify a snapshot, the default is the snapshot size. You can specify a volume size that is equal to or larger than the snapshot size.
The following are the supported volumes sizes for each volume type:
gp2 and gp3 :1-16,384
io1 and io2 : 4-16,384
st1 and sc1 : 125-16,384
standard : 1-1,024
VolumeType (string) --
The volume type. For more information, see Amazon EBS volume types in the Amazon EC2 User Guide . If the volume type is io1 or io2 , you must specify the IOPS that the volume supports.
KmsKeyId (string) --
Identifier (key ID, key alias, ID ARN, or alias ARN) for a customer managed CMK under which the EBS volume is encrypted.
This parameter is only supported on BlockDeviceMapping objects called by RunInstances , RequestSpotFleet , and RequestSpotInstances .
Throughput (integer) --
The throughput that the volume supports, in MiB/s.
This parameter is valid only for gp3 volumes.
Valid Range: Minimum value of 125. Maximum value of 1000.
OutpostArn (string) --
The ARN of the Outpost on which the snapshot is stored.
Encrypted (boolean) --
Indicates whether the encryption state of an EBS volume is changed while being restored from a backing snapshot. The effect of setting the encryption state to true depends on the volume origin (new or from a snapshot), starting encryption state, ownership, and whether encryption by default is enabled. For more information, see Amazon EBS encryption in the Amazon EC2 User Guide .
In no case can you remove encryption from an encrypted volume.
Encrypted volumes can only be attached to instances that support Amazon EBS encryption. For more information, see Supported instance types .
This parameter is not returned by .
NoDevice (string) --
To omit the device from the block device mapping, specify an empty string.
ImageId (string) --
The ID of the AMI.
LaunchPermissions (list) --
The launch permissions.
(dict) --
Describes a launch permission.
Group (string) --
The name of the group.
UserId (string) --
The AWS account ID.
Constraints: Up to 10 000 account IDs can be specified in a single request.

The attribute value. The value is case-sensitive.
{'Images': {'BootMode': 'legacy-bios | uefi'}}
Describes the specified images (AMIs, AKIs, and ARIs) available to you or all of the images available to you.
The images available to you include public images, private images that you own, and private images owned by other AWS accounts for which you have explicit launch permissions.
Recently deregistered images appear in the returned results for a short interval and then return empty results. After all instances that reference a deregistered AMI are terminated, specifying the ID of the image results in an error indicating that the AMI ID cannot be found.

Describes the specified instances or all instances.
If you specify instance IDs, the output includes information for only the specified instances. If you specify filters, the output includes information for only those instances that meet the filter criteria. If you do not specify instance IDs or filters, the output includes information for all instances, which can affect performance. We recommend that you use pagination to ensure that the operation returns quickly and successfully.
If you specify an instance ID that is not valid, an error is returned. If you specify an instance that you do not own, it is not included in the output.
Recently terminated instances might appear in the returned results. This interval is usually less than one hour.
If you describe instances in the rare case where an Availability Zone is experiencing a service disruption and you specify instance IDs that are in the affected zone, or do not specify any instance IDs at all, the call fails. If you describe instances and specify only instance IDs that are in an unaffected zone, the call works normally.

Registers an AMI. When you're creating an AMI, this is the final step you must complete before you can launch an instance from the AMI. For more information about creating AMIs, see Creating your own AMIs in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide .
Note
For Amazon EBS-backed instances, CreateImage creates and registers the AMI in a single request, so you don't have to register the AMI yourself.
If needed, you can deregister an AMI at any time. Any modifications you make to an AMI backed by an instance store volume invalidates its registration. If you make changes to an image, deregister the previous image and register the new image.
Register a snapshot of a root device volume
You can use RegisterImage to create an Amazon EBS-backed Linux AMI from a snapshot of a root device volume. You specify the snapshot using a block device mapping. You can't set the encryption state of the volume using the block device mapping. If the snapshot is encrypted, or encryption by default is enabled, the root volume of an instance launched from the AMI is encrypted.
For more information, see Create a Linux AMI from a snapshot and Use encryption with EBS-backed AMIs in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide .
AWS Marketplace product codes
If any snapshots have AWS Marketplace product codes, they are copied to the new AMI.
Windows and some Linux distributions, such as Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES), use the EC2 billing product code associated with an AMI to verify the subscription status for package updates. To create a new AMI for operating systems that require a billing product code, instead of registering the AMI, do the following to preserve the billing product code association:
Launch an instance from an existing AMI with that billing product code.
Customize the instance.
Create an AMI from the instance using CreateImage .
If you purchase a Reserved Instance to apply to an On-Demand Instance that was launched from an AMI with a billing product code, make sure that the Reserved Instance has the matching billing product code. If you purchase a Reserved Instance without the matching billing product code, the Reserved Instance will not be applied to the On-Demand Instance. For information about how to obtain the platform details and billing information of an AMI, see Obtaining billing information in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide .

string
The full path to your AMI manifest in Amazon S3 storage. The specified bucket must have the aws-exec-read canned access control list (ACL) to ensure that it can be accessed by Amazon EC2. For more information, see Canned ACLs in the Amazon S3 Service Developer Guide .
string
The architecture of the AMI.
Default: For Amazon EBS-backed AMIs, i386 . For instance store-backed AMIs, the architecture specified in the manifest file.
list
The block device mapping entries.
If you specify an EBS volume using the ID of an EBS snapshot, you can't specify the encryption state of the volume.
If you create an AMI on an Outpost, then all backing snapshots must be on the same Outpost or in the Region of that Outpost. AMIs on an Outpost that include local snapshots can be used to launch instances on the same Outpost only. For more information, Amazon EBS local snapshots on Outposts in the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud User Guide .
(dict) --
Describes a block device mapping.
DeviceName (string) --
The device name (for example, /dev/sdh or xvdh ).
VirtualName (string) --
The virtual device name (ephemeral N). Instance store volumes are numbered starting from 0. An instance type with 2 available instance store volumes can specify mappings for ephemeral0 and ephemeral1 . The number of available instance store volumes depends on the instance type. After you connect to the instance, you must mount the volume.
NVMe instance store volumes are automatically enumerated and assigned a device name. Including them in your block device mapping has no effect.
Constraints: For M3 instances, you must specify instance store volumes in the block device mapping for the instance. When you launch an M3 instance, we ignore any instance store volumes specified in the block device mapping for the AMI.
Ebs (dict) --
Parameters used to automatically set up EBS volumes when the instance is launched.
DeleteOnTermination (boolean) --
Indicates whether the EBS volume is deleted on instance termination. For more information, see Preserving Amazon EBS volumes on instance termination in the Amazon EC2 User Guide .
Iops (integer) --
The number of I/O operations per second (IOPS). For gp3 , io1 , and io2 volumes, this represents the number of IOPS that are provisioned for the volume. For gp2 volumes, this represents the baseline performance of the volume and the rate at which the volume accumulates I/O credits for bursting.
The following are the supported values for each volume type:
gp3 : 3,000-16,000 IOPS
io1 : 100-64,000 IOPS
io2 : 100-64,000 IOPS
For io1 and io2 volumes, we guarantee 64,000 IOPS only for Instances built on the Nitro System . Other instance families guarantee performance up to 32,000 IOPS.
This parameter is required for io1 and io2 volumes. The default for gp3 volumes is 3,000 IOPS. This parameter is not supported for gp2 , st1 , sc1 , or standard volumes.
SnapshotId (string) --
The ID of the snapshot.
VolumeSize (integer) --
The size of the volume, in GiBs. You must specify either a snapshot ID or a volume size. If you specify a snapshot, the default is the snapshot size. You can specify a volume size that is equal to or larger than the snapshot size.
The following are the supported volumes sizes for each volume type:
gp2 and gp3 :1-16,384
io1 and io2 : 4-16,384
st1 and sc1 : 125-16,384
standard : 1-1,024
VolumeType (string) --
The volume type. For more information, see Amazon EBS volume types in the Amazon EC2 User Guide . If the volume type is io1 or io2 , you must specify the IOPS that the volume supports.
KmsKeyId (string) --
Identifier (key ID, key alias, ID ARN, or alias ARN) for a customer managed CMK under which the EBS volume is encrypted.
This parameter is only supported on BlockDeviceMapping objects called by RunInstances , RequestSpotFleet , and RequestSpotInstances .
Throughput (integer) --
The throughput that the volume supports, in MiB/s.
This parameter is valid only for gp3 volumes.
Valid Range: Minimum value of 125. Maximum value of 1000.
OutpostArn (string) --
The ARN of the Outpost on which the snapshot is stored.
Encrypted (boolean) --
Indicates whether the encryption state of an EBS volume is changed while being restored from a backing snapshot. The effect of setting the encryption state to true depends on the volume origin (new or from a snapshot), starting encryption state, ownership, and whether encryption by default is enabled. For more information, see Amazon EBS encryption in the Amazon EC2 User Guide .
In no case can you remove encryption from an encrypted volume.
Encrypted volumes can only be attached to instances that support Amazon EBS encryption. For more information, see Supported instance types .
This parameter is not returned by .
NoDevice (string) --
To omit the device from the block device mapping, specify an empty string.
string
A description for your AMI.
boolean
Checks whether you have the required permissions for the action, without actually making the request, and provides an error response. If you have the required permissions, the error response is DryRunOperation . Otherwise, it is UnauthorizedOperation .
boolean
Set to true to enable enhanced networking with ENA for the AMI and any instances that you launch from the AMI.
This option is supported only for HVM AMIs. Specifying this option with a PV AMI can make instances launched from the AMI unreachable.
string
The ID of the kernel.
string
[REQUIRED]

{'Instances': {'BootMode': 'legacy-bios | uefi'}}
Launches the specified number of instances using an AMI for which you have permissions.
You can specify a number of options, or leave the default options. The following rules apply:
[EC2-VPC] If you don't specify a subnet ID, we choose a default subnet from your default VPC for you. If you don't have a default VPC, you must specify a subnet ID in the request.
[EC2-Classic] If don't specify an Availability Zone, we choose one for you.
Some instance types must be launched into a VPC. If you do not have a default VPC, or if you do not specify a subnet ID, the request fails. For more information, see Instance types available only in a VPC .
[EC2-VPC] All instances have a network interface with a primary private IPv4 address. If you don't specify this address, we choose one from the IPv4 range of your subnet.
Not all instance types support IPv6 addresses. For more information, see Instance types .
If you don't specify a security group ID, we use the default security group. For more information, see Security groups .
If any of the AMIs have a product code attached for which the user has not subscribed, the request fails.
You can create a launch template , which is a resource that contains the parameters to launch an instance. When you launch an instance using RunInstances , you can specify the launch template instead of specifying the launch parameters.
To ensure faster instance launches, break up large requests into smaller batches. For example, create five separate launch requests for 100 instances each instead of one launch request for 500 instances.
An instance is ready for you to use when it's in the running state. You can check the state of your instance using DescribeInstances . You can tag instances and EBS volumes during launch, after launch, or both. For more information, see CreateTags and Tagging your Amazon EC2 resources .
Linux instances have access to the public key of the key pair at boot. You can use this key to provide secure access to the instance. Amazon EC2 public images use this feature to provide secure access without passwords. For more information, see Key pairs .
For troubleshooting, see What to do if an instance immediately terminates , and Troubleshooting connecting to your instance .

VirtualName (string) --
The virtual device name (ephemeral N). Instance store volumes are numbered starting from 0. An instance type with 2 available instance store volumes can specify mappings for ephemeral0 and ephemeral1 . The number of available instance store volumes depends on the instance type. After you connect to the instance, you must mount the volume.
NVMe instance store volumes are automatically enumerated and assigned a device name. Including them in your block device mapping has no effect.
Constraints: For M3 instances, you must specify instance store volumes in the block device mapping for the instance. When you launch an M3 instance, we ignore any instance store volumes specified in the block device mapping for the AMI.
Ebs (dict) --
Parameters used to automatically set up EBS volumes when the instance is launched.
