# Create an account pool with a static list of account and region pairs
<a name="account-pools-create-static"></a>

You can create an account pool where the accounts are provided as a list of static accounts. Use these steps when your account pool source is a static list and not provided by the custom Lambda function.
+ Open a terminal (Linux, macOS, or Unix) or command prompt (Windows) and use the AWS CLI to run the `get-account-pool` command with the following format, where the domain ID, account pool name, and source of accounts are required arguments.

  ```
  aws datazone create-account-pool --domain-identifier {{DOMAIN_ID}} --name {{ACCOUNT_POOL_ID}} --resolution-strategy MANUAL --account-source <source>
  ```

  Example command:

  ```
  aws datazone create-account-pool --domain-identifier {{dzd_dkqsou2EXAMPLE}} --name my-accountpool --resolution-strategy MANUAL --account-source '{"accounts": [{"awsAccountId": "{{111122223333}}", "supportedRegions": ["us-east-1"], "awsAccountName": "ExampleAccount"}]}'
  ```

  This command returns output with the account pool details.
