**To create an input**

The following ``create-input`` example creates an input. ::

    aws iotevents create-input \
        --cli-input-json file://pressureInput.json

Contents of ``pressureInput.json``::

    {
        "inputName": "PressureInput",
        "inputDescription": "Pressure readings from a motor",
        "inputDefinition": {
            "attributes": [
                    { "jsonPath": "sensorData.pressure" },
                    { "jsonPath": "motorid" }
                ]
        }
    }

Output::

    {
        "inputConfiguration": {
            "status": "ACTIVE", 
            "inputArn": "arn:aws:iotevents:us-west-2:123456789012:input/PressureInput",
