create-registry-record

Description

Creates a new registry record within the specified registry. A registry record represents an individual AI resource’s metadata in the registry. This could be an MCP server (and associated tools), A2A agent, agent skill, or a custom resource with a custom schema.

The record is processed asynchronously and returns HTTP 202 Accepted.

--client-token (string)

A unique, case-sensitive identifier to ensure that the API request completes no more than one time. If you don’t specify this field, a value is randomly generated for you. If this token matches a previous request, the service ignores the request, but doesn’t return an error. For more information, see Ensuring idempotency .

--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.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.
