createLoadBalancer

Creates a Lightsail load balancer. To learn more about deciding whether to load balance your application, see Configure your Lightsail instances for load balancing. You can create up to 5 load balancers per AWS Region in your account.

When you create a load balancer, you can specify a unique name and port settings. To change additional load balancer settings, use the UpdateLoadBalancerAttribute operation.

The create load balancer operation supports tag-based access control via request tags. For more information, see the Amazon Lightsail Developer Guide.
