Use CreateDBParameterGroup with an Amazon SDK or CLI

The following code examples show how to use CreateDBParameterGroup.

Action examples are code excerpts from larger programs and must be run in context. You can see this action in context in the following code example:

CLI
Amazon CLI

To create a DB parameter group

The following create-db-parameter-group example creates a DB parameter group.

aws rds create-db-parameter-group \ --db-parameter-group-name mydbparametergroup \ --db-parameter-group-family MySQL5.6 \ --description "My new parameter group"

Output:

{ "DBParameterGroup": { "DBParameterGroupName": "mydbparametergroup", "DBParameterGroupFamily": "mysql5.6", "Description": "My new parameter group", "DBParameterGroupArn": "arn:aws:rds:us-east-1:123456789012:pg:mydbparametergroup" } }
