# CreateProxy


Creates an AWS Network Firewall [Proxy](API_Proxy.md) 

Attaches a Proxy configuration to a NAT Gateway. 

To manage a proxy's tags, use the standard AWS resource tagging operations, [ListTagsForResource](API_ListTagsForResource.md), [TagResource](API_TagResource.md), and [UntagResource](API_UntagResource.md).

To retrieve information about proxies, use [ListProxies](API_ListProxies.md) and [DescribeProxy](API_DescribeProxy.md).

## Response Elements


If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 200 response.

The following data is returned in JSON format by the service.

 ** [Proxy](#API_CreateProxy_ResponseSyntax) **   <a name="networkfirewall-CreateProxy-response-Proxy"></a>
Proxy attached to a NAT gateway.   
Type: [Proxy](API_Proxy.md) object

 ** [UpdateToken](#API_CreateProxy_ResponseSyntax) **   <a name="networkfirewall-CreateProxy-response-UpdateToken"></a>
A token used for optimistic locking. Network Firewall returns a token to your requests that access the proxy. The token marks the state of the proxy resource at the time of the request.   
To make changes to the proxy, you provide the token in your request. Network Firewall uses the token to ensure that the proxy hasn't changed since you last retrieved it. If it has changed, the operation fails with an `InvalidTokenException`. If this happens, retrieve the proxy again to get a current copy of it with a current token. Reapply your changes as needed, then try the operation again using the new token.   
Type: String  
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 1024.  
Pattern: `^([0-9a-f]{8})-([0-9a-f]{4}-){3}([0-9a-f]{12})$`
