1**To create a host**
2
3The following ``create-host`` example shows how to create a host  to represent the endpoint for the infrastructure where your third-party provider is installed. This example creates a host where the third-party installed provider is GitHub Enterprise Server.
4
5A host created through the AWS CLI is in Pending status by default. After you create a host with the CLI, use the console or the CLI to set up the host to make its status Available. ::
6
7    aws codestar-connections create-host \
8        --name MyHost \
9        --provider-type GitHubEnterpriseServer \
10        --provider-endpoint "https://my-instance.dev"
11
12Output::
13
14    {
15        "HostArn": "arn:aws:codestar-connections:us-east-1:123456789012:host/My-Host-28aef605"
16    }
