Python AWS IoT Core: Create thingName shadow

Question

In the AWS Documentation, there are only instructions on how to update_thing_shadow. (https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/reference/services/iot-data.html#IoTDataPlane.Client.update_thing_shadow)

How do we create the thing shadow?

Thanks!
