--name <value>
[--client-request-token <value>]
[--description <value>]
[--kms-key-id <value>]

[--secret-string <value>]
[--tags <value>]

You can use the --secret-string option for this.

For Key-Value pairs you can do JSON formatted string and it will show up as Key-Value pairs in console:

aws secretsmanager create-secret --name my-secret-kv-pairs --secret-string '{"foo":"bar"}'

If you just want plain text you can do :

aws secretsmanager create-secret --name my-secret-just-text --secret-string 'My random string'
