Request parameters

Parameter Type Position Required Example Description
serviceName String Path Yes service_name

The name of the service.

Object Body No

The definition of the function.

code Code Body No

The code of the function. The code must be packaged into a ZIP file.

customContainerConfig CustomContainerConfig Body No

The configuration of the custom container runtime. After you configure the custom container runtime, you can use custom container images to execute functions.

layers Array of String Body No 02f81d283888f5ec63442a88fe82b260#Layer-name#1

description String Body No test_description

The description of the function.

functionName String Body Yes function_name

The name of the function.

handler String Body Yes index.handler

The handler of the function. The format is determined by the programming language. For more information, see Function handlers.

initializationTimeout Integer Body No 30

The timeout period for the execution of the initializer function. Unit: seconds. Default value: 3. Valid values: 1 to 300. When this period expires, the execution of the initializer function is terminated.

initializer String Body No index.initializer

The handler of the initializer function. The format is determined by the programming language. For more information, see Initializer function.

memorySize Integer Body No 256

The memory size of the function. Unit: MB. The memory size must be a multiple of 64 MB. Instance types have different memory specifications. For more information, see Instance types.

runtime String Body No python3

The runtime environment of the function. Valid values: nodejs6, nodejs8, nodejs10, nodejs12, python2.7, python3, java8, java11, php7.2, dotnetcore2.1, custom runtime, and custom container.

timeout Integer Body No 60

The timeout period for the execution of the function. Unit: seconds. Default value: 60. Valid values: 1 to 600. When this period expires, the execution of the function is terminated.

caPort Integer Body No 9000

The port on which the HTTP server listens for the custom runtime or custom container runtime.

Function code packages can be provided in the following two methods. You must use only one of the methods in a single request.

  • Specify the names of the Object Storage Service (OSS) bucket and object where the code package is stored.
  • Specify that the zipFile parameter is used as the Base64-encoded content of the ZIP file.

Response parameters

Parameter Type Example Description
