Can we create an Appflow Connector for Sharepoint via CLI?

Question

The Sharepoint Online connector for AppFlow is a custom connector, and as such the documentation on using the SDK is very scant. Is it possible to create a Connection via AWS CLI with this connector type, and if so can someone provide a working example of the exact fields required. I've started by listing out a connection that I created manually in the console, and then trying to recreate that via command like below, but the closest I can get after passing all of the request validations one by one is that the service attempts to connect and then fails somehow.

aws appflow create-connector-profile \
--connector-profile-name 'test-999' \
--connector-type 'CustomConnector' \
--connector-label 'MicrosoftSharePointOnline' \
--connection-mode 'Public' \
--connector-profile-config  ' { "connectorProfileProperties": {
                "CustomConnector": {
                    "profileProperties": {
                        "authCode": "",
                        "usePrivateLinkForMetadataAndAuthorization": "false"
                    },
                    "oAuth2Properties": {
                        "tokenUrl": "https://login.microsoftonline.com/xx/oauth2/v2.0/token",
                        "oAuth2GrantType": "AUTHORIZATION_CODE"
                    }
                }
},
  "connectorProfileCredentials":
  {
    "CustomConnector": {
        "authenticationType": "OAUTH2",
        "oauth2": {
        "clientId": "xx",
        "clientSecret": "xx"
    }
  } } }'
