Use CreateHostedZone with a CLI

To create a hosted zone

The following create-hosted-zone command adds a hosted zone named example.com using the caller reference 2014-04-01-18:47. The optional comment includes a space, so it must be enclosed in quotation marks:

aws route53 create-hosted-zone --name example.com --caller-reference 2014-04-01-18:47 --hosted-zone-config Comment="command-line version"

For more information, see Working with Hosted Zones in the Amazon Route 53 Developer Guide.

Example 1: Creates a new hosted zone named 'example.com', associated with a reusable delegation set. Note that you must supply a value for the CallerReference parameter so that requests that need to be retried if necessary without the risk of executing the operation twice. Because the hosted zone is being created in a VPC it is automatically private and you should not set the -HostedZoneConfig_PrivateZone parameter.

$params = @{
    Name="example.com"
    CallerReference="myUniqueIdentifier"
    HostedZoneConfig_Comment="This is my first hosted zone"
    DelegationSetId="NZ8X2CISAMPLE"
    VPC_VPCId="vpc-1a2b3c4d"
    VPC_VPCRegion="us-east-1"
}
