.. py:method:: Lightsail.Client.create_relational_database_from_snapshot(**kwargs)

  

  Creates a new database from an existing database snapshot in Amazon Lightsail.

   

  You can create a new database from a snapshot in if something goes wrong with your original database, or to change it to a different plan, such as a high availability or standard plan.

   

  The ``create relational database from snapshot`` operation supports tag-based access control via request tags and resource tags applied to the resource identified by relationalDatabaseSnapshotName. For more information, see the `Amazon Lightsail Developer Guide <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lightsail/latest/userguide/amazon-lightsail-controlling-access-using-tags>`__.

    response = client.create_relational_database_from_snapshot(
        relationalDatabaseName='string',
        availabilityZone='string',
        publiclyAccessible=True|False,
        relationalDatabaseSnapshotName='string',
        relationalDatabaseBundleId='string',
        sourceRelationalDatabaseName='string',
        restoreTime=datetime(2015, 1, 1),

        tags=[
            {
                'key': 'string',
                'value': 'string'
            },
        ]
    )
    
  :type relationalDatabaseName: string
  :param relationalDatabaseName: **[REQUIRED]** 

    The name to use for your new Lightsail database resource.

     

    Constraints:

     

    
    * Must contain from 2 to 255 alphanumeric characters, or hyphens.
     
    * The first and last character must be a letter or number.
    

    

  
  :type availabilityZone: string
  :param availabilityZone: 

    The Availability Zone in which to create your new database. Use the ``us-east-2a`` case-sensitive format.

     

    You can get a list of Availability Zones by using the ``get regions`` operation. Be sure to add the ``include relational database Availability Zones`` parameter to your request.

    

  
  :type publiclyAccessible: boolean
  :param publiclyAccessible: 

    Specifies the accessibility options for your new database. A value of ``true`` specifies a database that is available to resources outside of your Lightsail account. A value of ``false`` specifies a database that is available only to your Lightsail resources in the same region as your database.

    

  
  :type relationalDatabaseSnapshotName: string
  :param relationalDatabaseSnapshotName: 

    The name of the database snapshot from which to create your new database.

    

  
  :type relationalDatabaseBundleId: string
  :param relationalDatabaseBundleId: 

    The bundle ID for your new database. A bundle describes the performance specifications for your database.

     

    You can get a list of database bundle IDs by using the ``get relational database bundles`` operation.

     

    When creating a new database from a snapshot, you cannot choose a bundle that is smaller than the bundle of the source database.

    

  
  :type sourceRelationalDatabaseName: string
  :param sourceRelationalDatabaseName: 

    The name of the source database.

    

  
  :type restoreTime: datetime
  :param restoreTime: 

    The date and time to restore your database from.

     

    Constraints:

     

    
    * Must be before the latest restorable time for the database.
     
    * Cannot be specified if the ``use latest restorable time`` parameter is ``true``.
     
    * Specified in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
     
    * Specified in the Unix time format. For example, if you wish to use a restore time of October 1, 2018, at 8 PM UTC, then you input ``1538424000`` as the restore time.
    

    

  
  :type useLatestRestorableTime: boolean
  :param useLatestRestorableTime: 

    Specifies whether your database is restored from the latest backup time. A value of ``true`` restores from the latest backup time.

     

    Default: ``false``

     

    Constraints: Cannot be specified if the ``restore time`` parameter is provided.

    

  
  :type tags: list
  :param tags: 

    The tag keys and optional values to add to the resource during create.

     

    Use the ``TagResource`` action to tag a resource after it's created.

    

  
    - *(dict) --* 

      Describes a tag key and optional value assigned to an Amazon Lightsail resource.

       

      For more information about tags in Lightsail, see the `Amazon Lightsail Developer Guide <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lightsail/latest/userguide/amazon-lightsail-tags>`__.

      

    
      - **key** *(string) --* 

        The key of the tag.

         

        Constraints: Tag keys accept a maximum of 128 letters, numbers, spaces in UTF-8, or the following characters: + - = . _ : / @

        

      
      - **value** *(string) --* 

        The value of the tag.

         

        Constraints: Tag values accept a maximum of 256 letters, numbers, spaces in UTF-8, or the following characters: + - = . _ : / @
