Creates a dataset group, which holds a collection of related datasets. You can add datasets to the dataset group when you create the dataset group, or later by using the UpdateDatasetGroup operation.

After creating a dataset group and adding datasets, you use the dataset group when you create a predictor. For more information, see Dataset groups.

To get a list of all your datasets groups, use the ListDatasetGroups operation.

The Status of a dataset group must be ACTIVE before you can use the dataset group to create a predictor. To get the status, use the DescribeDatasetGroup operation.
