Creates and initializes a code interpreter session in Amazon Bedrock AgentCore. The session enables agents to execute code as part of their response generation, supporting programming languages such as Python for data analysis, visualization, and computation tasks.

To create a session, you must specify a code interpreter identifier and a name. The session remains active until it times out or you explicitly stop it using the StopCodeInterpreterSession operation.

The following operations are related to StartCodeInterpreterSession:

put/code-interpreters/{codeInterpreterIdentifier}/sessions/start

Path parameters

codeInterpreterIdentifierstring required

The unique identifier of the code interpreter to use for this session. This identifier specifies which code interpreter environment to initialize for the session.

Headers

X-Amzn-Trace-Idstring

The trace identifier for request tracking.

traceparentstring

The parent trace information for distributed tracing.

Request body

namestring

The name of the code interpreter session. This name helps you identify and manage the session. The name does not need to be unique.

sessionTimeoutSecondsinteger

The duration in seconds (time-to-live) after which the session automatically terminates, regardless of ongoing activity. Defaults to 900 seconds (15 minutes). Recommended minimum: 60 seconds. Maximum allowed: 28,800 seconds (8 hours).

clientTokenstring

A unique, case-sensitive identifier to ensure that the API request completes no more than one time. If this token matches a previous request, Amazon Bedrock AgentCore ignores the request, but does not return an error. This parameter helps prevent the creation of duplicate sessions if there are temporary network issues.

Response

Success

codeInterpreterIdentifierstring required

The identifier of the code interpreter.

sessionIdstring required

The unique identifier of the created code interpreter session.

createdAtstring date-time required

The time at which the code interpreter session was created.
