## Request Parameters


For information about the parameters that are common to all actions, see [Common Parameters](CommonParameters.md).

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

 ** [KmsKeyId](#API_CopySnapshot_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="MemoryDB-CopySnapshot-request-KmsKeyId"></a>
The ID of the KMS key used to encrypt the target snapshot.  
Type: String  
Length Constraints: Maximum length of 2048.  
Required: No

 ** [SourceSnapshotName](#API_CopySnapshot_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="MemoryDB-CopySnapshot-request-SourceSnapshotName"></a>
The name of an existing snapshot from which to make a copy.  
Type: String  
Required: Yes

 ** [Tags](#API_CopySnapshot_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="MemoryDB-CopySnapshot-request-Tags"></a>
A list of tags to be added to this resource. A tag is a key-value pair. A tag key must be accompanied by a tag value, although null is accepted.  
Type: Array of [Tag](API_Tag.md) objects  
Array Members: Maximum number of 200 items.  
Required: No

 ** [TargetBucket](#API_CopySnapshot_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="MemoryDB-CopySnapshot-request-TargetBucket"></a>
The Amazon S3 bucket to which the snapshot is exported. This parameter is used only when exporting a snapshot for external access. When using this parameter to export a snapshot, be sure MemoryDB has the needed permissions to this S3 bucket. For more information, see [Step 2: Grant MemoryDB Access to Your Amazon S3 Bucket](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/MemoryDB/latest/devguide/snapshots-exporting.html).   
Type: String  
Length Constraints: Maximum length of 255.  
Pattern: `^[A-Za-z0-9._-]+$`   
Required: No

 ** [TargetSnapshotName](#API_CopySnapshot_RequestSyntax) **   <a name="MemoryDB-CopySnapshot-request-TargetSnapshotName"></a>
A name for the snapshot copy. MemoryDB does not permit overwriting a snapshot, therefore this name must be unique within its context - MemoryDB or an Amazon S3 bucket if exporting. This value is stored as a lowercase string.  
Type: String  
Required: Yes
