Creates an SageMaker notebook instance. A notebook instance is a machine learning (ML) compute instance running on a Jupyter notebook.

In a CreateNotebookInstance request, specify the type of ML compute instance that you want to run. SageMaker launches the instance, installs common libraries that you can use to explore datasets for model training, and attaches an ML storage volume to the notebook instance.

SageMaker also provides a set of example notebooks. Each notebook demonstrates how to use SageMaker with a specific algorithm or with a machine learning framework.

After receiving the request, SageMaker does the following:

  1. Creates a network interface in the SageMaker VPC.

  2. (Option) If you specified SubnetId, SageMaker creates a network interface in your own VPC, which is inferred from the subnet ID that you provide in the input. When creating this network interface, SageMaker attaches the security group that you specified in the request to the network interface that it creates in your VPC.

  3. Launches an EC2 instance of the type specified in the request in the SageMaker VPC. If you specified SubnetId of your VPC, SageMaker specifies both network interfaces when launching this instance. This enables inbound traffic from your own VPC to the notebook instance, assuming that the security groups allow it.

After creating the notebook instance, SageMaker returns its Amazon Resource Name (ARN). You can't change the name of a notebook instance after you create it.

After SageMaker creates the notebook instance, you can connect to the Jupyter server and work in Jupyter notebooks. For example, you can write code to explore a dataset that you can use for model training, train a model, host models by creating SageMaker endpoints, and validate hosted models.

The type of ML compute instance to launch for the notebook instance.

SubnetIdstring

The ID of the subnet in a VPC to which you would like to have a connectivity from your ML compute instance.

SecurityGroupIdsSecurityGroupId[]

The VPC security group IDs, in the form sg-xxxxxxxx. The security groups must be for the same VPC as specified in the subnet.

RoleArnstring required
<p> When you send any requests to Amazon Web Services resources from the notebook instance, SageMaker assumes this role to perform tasks on your behalf. You must grant this role necessary permissions so SageMaker can perform these tasks. The policy must allow the SageMaker service principal (sagemaker.amazonaws.com) permissions to assume this role. For more information, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sagemaker/latest/dg/sagemaker-roles.html">SageMaker Roles</a>. </p> <note> <p>To be able to pass this role to SageMaker, the caller of this API must have the <code>iam:PassRole</code> permission.</p> </note>
KmsKeyIdstring

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of a Amazon Web Services Key Management Service key that SageMaker uses to encrypt data on the storage volume attached to your notebook instance. The KMS key you provide must be enabled. For information, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/enabling-keys.html">Enabling and Disabling Keys</a> in the <i>Amazon Web Services Key Management Service Developer Guide</i>.

LifecycleConfigNamestring

The name of a lifecycle configuration to associate with the notebook instance. For information about lifestyle configurations, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sagemaker/latest/dg/notebook-lifecycle-config.html">Step 2.1: (Optional) Customize a Notebook Instance</a>.

DirectInternetAccess'Enabled' | 'Disabled'
<p>Sets whether SageMaker provides internet access to the notebook instance. If you set this to <code>Disabled</code> this notebook instance is able to access resources only in your VPC, and is not be able to connect to SageMaker training and endpoint services unless you configure a NAT Gateway in your VPC.</p> <p>For more information, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sagemaker/latest/dg/appendix-additional-considerations.html#appendix-notebook-and-internet-access">Notebook Instances Are Internet-Enabled by Default</a>. You can set the value of this parameter to <code>Disabled</code> only if you set a value for the <code>SubnetId</code> parameter.</p>

The size, in GB, of the ML storage volume to attach to the notebook instance. The default value is 5 GB.

AcceleratorTypesNotebookInstanceAcceleratorType[]

A list of Elastic Inference (EI) instance types to associate with this notebook instance. Currently, only one instance type can be associated with a notebook instance. For more information, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sagemaker/latest/dg/ei.html">Using Elastic Inference in Amazon SageMaker</a>.

DefaultCodeRepositorystring

A Git repository to associate with the notebook instance as its default code repository. This can be either the name of a Git repository stored as a resource in your account, or the URL of a Git repository in <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/codecommit/latest/userguide/welcome.html">Amazon Web Services CodeCommit</a> or in any other Git repository. When you open a notebook instance, it opens in the directory that contains this repository.

RootAccess'Enabled' | 'Disabled'
<p>Whether root access is enabled or disabled for users of the notebook instance. The default value is <code>Enabled</code>.</p> <note> <p>Lifecycle configurations need root access to be able to set up a notebook instance. Because of this, lifecycle configurations associated with a notebook instance always run with root access even if you disable root access for users.</p> </note>
