Create a new workload

Description

Create a new workload.

The owner of a workload can share the workload with other Amazon Web Services accounts, users, an organization, and organizational units (OUs) in the same Amazon Web Services Region. Only the owner of a workload can delete it.

For more information, see Defining a Workload in the Well-Architected Tool User Guide.

Either AwsRegions, NonAwsRegions, or both must be specified when creating a workload.

You also must specify ReviewOwner, even though the parameter is listed as not being required in the following section.

When creating a workload using a review template, you must have the following IAM permissions:

  • wellarchitected:GetReviewTemplate
  • wellarchitected:GetReviewTemplateAnswer
  • wellarchitected:ListReviewTemplateAnswers
  • wellarchitected:GetReviewTemplateLensReview

Usage

wellarchitected_create_workload(WorkloadName, Description, Environment,
  AccountIds, AwsRegions, NonAwsRegions, PillarPriorities,
  ArchitecturalDesign, ReviewOwner, IndustryType, Industry, Lenses, Notes,
  ClientRequestToken, Tags, DiscoveryConfig, Applications, ProfileArns,
  ReviewTemplateArns, JiraConfiguration)

Arguments

  • WorkloadName

    [required] The name of the workload.

    The name must be unique within an account within an Amazon Web Services Region. Spaces and capitalization are ignored when checking for uniqueness.

  • Description

    [required] The description for the workload.

  • Environment

    [required] The environment for the workload.

  • AccountIds

    The list of Amazon Web Services account IDs associated with the workload.

  • AwsRegions

    The list of Amazon Web Services Regions associated with the workload, for example, us-east-2, or ca-central-1.

  • NonAwsRegions

    The list of non-Amazon Web Services Regions associated with the workload.

  • PillarPriorities

    The priorities of the pillars, which are used to order items in the improvement plan. Each pillar is represented by its PillarReviewSummary$PillarId.

  • ArchitecturalDesign

    The URL of the architectural design for the workload.

  • ReviewOwner

    The review owner of the workload. The name, email address, or identifier for the primary group or individual that owns the workload review process.

  • IndustryType

    The industry type for the workload.

    If specified, must be one of the following:

    • Agriculture
    • Automobile
    • Defense
    • Design and Engineering
    • Digital Advertising

    • Real Estate & Construction
    • Retail & Wholesale
    • Social Protection
    • Telecommunications
    • Travel, Transportation & Logistics
    • Other
  • Industry

    The industry for the workload.

  • Lenses

    [required] The list of lenses associated with the workload. Each lens is identified by its LensSummary$LensAlias.

    If a review template that specifies lenses is applied to the workload, those lenses are applied to the workload in addition to these lenses.

  • Notes

    The notes associated with the workload.

    For a review template, these are the notes that will be associated with the workload when the template is applied.

  • ClientRequestToken

    [required] A unique case-sensitive string used to ensure that this request is idempotent (executes only once).

    You should not reuse the same token for other requests. If you retry a request with the same client request token and the same parameters after the original request has completed successfully, the result of the original request is returned.

    This token is listed as required, however, if you do not specify it, the Amazon Web Services SDKs automatically generate one for you. If you are not using the Amazon Web Services SDK or the CLI, you must provide this token or the request will fail.

  • Tags

    The tags to be associated with the workload.

  • DiscoveryConfig

    Well-Architected discovery configuration settings associated to the workload.

  • Applications

    List of AppRegistry application ARNs associated to the workload.

  • ProfileArns

    The list of profile ARNs associated with the workload.

  • ReviewTemplateArns

    The list of review template ARNs to associate with the workload.
