createWorkflow

Creates a private workflow. Before you create a private workflow, you must create and configure these required resources:

Workflow definition file: A workflow definition file written in WDL, Nextflow, or CWL. The workflow definition specifies the inputs and outputs for runs that use the workflow. It also includes specifications for the runs and run tasks for your workflow, including compute and memory requirements. The workflow definition file must be in .zip format. For more information, see Workflow definition files in Amazon Web Services HealthOmics.

You can use Amazon Q CLI to build and validate your workflow definition files in WDL, Nextflow, and CWL. For more information, see Example prompts for Amazon Q CLI and the Amazon Web Services HealthOmics Agentic generative AI tutorial on GitHub.

(Optional) Parameter template file: A parameter template file written in JSON. Create the file to define the run parameters, or Amazon Web Services HealthOmics generates the parameter template for you. For more information, see Parameter template files for HealthOmics workflows.
ECR container images: Create container images for the workflow in a private ECR repository, or synchronize images from a supported upstream registry with your Amazon ECR private repository.
(Optional) Sentieon licenses: Request a Sentieon license to use the Sentieon software in private workflows.

For more information, see Creating or updating a private workflow in Amazon Web Services HealthOmics in the Amazon Web Services HealthOmics User Guide.
