create_slot_type_version

LexModelBuildingService.Client.create_slot_type_version(**kwargs)

Creates a new version of a slot type based on the $LATEST version of the specified slot type. If the $LATEST version of this resource has not changed since the last version that you created, Amazon Lex doesn't create a new version. It returns the last version that you created.

Note

You can update only the $LATEST version of a slot type. You can't update the numbered versions that you create with the CreateSlotTypeVersion operation.

When you create a version of a slot type, Amazon Lex sets the version to 1. Subsequent versions increment by 1. For more information, see versioning-intro.

This operation requires permissions for the lex:CreateSlotTypeVersion action.

Request Syntax

response = client.create_slot_type_version(
    name='string',
    checksum='string'
)

Parameters

• name (string) --

  [REQUIRED]

  The name of the slot type that you want to create a new version for. The name is case sensitive.

• checksum (string) -- Checksum for the $LATEST version of the slot type that you want to publish. If you specify a checksum and the $LATEST version of the slot type has a different checksum, Amazon Lex returns a PreconditionFailedException exception and doesn't publish the new version. If you don't specify a checksum, Amazon Lex publishes the $LATEST version.

    The name of the slot type.

  • description (string) --

    A description of the slot type.

  • enumerationValues (list) --

    A list of EnumerationValue objects that defines the values that the slot type can take.

    • (dict) --

      Each slot type can have a set of values. Each enumeration value represents a value the slot type can take.

      • thick
      • thin
      • stuffed

      • value (string) --

        The value of the slot type.

      • synonyms (list) --

        Additional values related to the slot type value.

        • (string) --

  • lastUpdatedDate (datetime) --

    The date that the slot type was updated. When you create a resource, the creation date and last update date are the same.

  • createdDate (datetime) --

    The date that the slot type was created.

  • version (string) --

    The version assigned to the new slot type version.

  • checksum (string) --

    Checksum of the $LATEST version of the slot type.

  • valueSelectionStrategy (string) --

    The strategy that Amazon Lex uses to determine the value of the slot. For more information, see PutSlotType.

  • parentSlotTypeSignature (string) --

    The built-in slot type used a the parent of the slot type.

  • slotTypeConfigurations (list) --

    Configuration information that extends the parent built-in slot type.

    • (dict) --

      Provides configuration information for a slot type.

      • regexConfiguration (dict) --

        A regular expression used to validate the value of a slot.

        • pattern (string) --

          A regular expression used to validate the value of a slot.

          Use a standard regular expression. Amazon Lex supports the following characters in the regular expression:

          • A-Z, a-z
          • 0-9
