List of operations by function - Auto Scaling - Alibaba Cloud Documentation Center

This product(Ess/2022-02-22) OpenAPI adopts RPC Signature style. See signature details in Description of the signature mechanism. We have packaged SDKs for common programming languages for developers. Developers can directly call the OpenAPI of this product by downloading the SDK without paying attention to the technical details. If the existing SDK cannot meet the usage requirements, you can connect through the signature mechanism. It will take about 5 working days. Therefore, it is recommended to join our DingTalk service group (11370001915) and sign under the guidance of experts.

Before using the API, you need to prepare your identity account and access key (AccessKey) to effectively access the API through client tools (SDK, CLI, etc.). For details see getAccessKey.

Scaling configurations

API	Title	Description
CreateScalingConfiguration	CreateScalingConfiguration	Creates a scaling configuration.
DescribeScalingConfigurations	DescribeScalingConfigurations	Queries scaling configurations of the Elastic Compute Service (ECS) type. You can call this operation to learn about the details of scaling configurations that are used as templates to scale out ECS instances.

DeleteScalingConfiguration	DeleteScalingConfiguration	Deletes a scaling configuration that is used to create Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instances.
CreateEciScalingConfiguration	CreateEciScalingConfiguration	Creates a scaling configuration of the Elastic Container Instance type. Auto Scaling uses the scaling configuration as a template to create elastic container instances to meet your business requirements during scale-outs.
DescribeEciScalingConfigurations	DescribeEciScalingConfigurations	Queries scaling configurations of the Elastic Container Instance type to learn the scaling configuration details. This allows you to select an appropriate template when you create elastic container instances.
ModifyEciScalingConfiguration	ModifyEciScalingConfiguration	Modifies a scaling configuration for a scaling group that contains elastic container instances.
DeleteEciScalingConfiguration	DeleteEciScalingConfiguration	Deletes a scaling configuration that is used to create elastic container instances.

Scaling rules

API	Title	Description
CreateScalingRule	CreateScalingRule	Creates a scaling rule.
ModifyScalingRule	ModifyScalingRule	Modifies a scaling rule.
DescribeScalingRules	DescribeScalingRules	Queries all scaling rules in a scaling group.
DeleteScalingRule	DeleteScalingRule	Deletes a scaling rule.

Scaling tasks

API	Title	Description
ExecuteScalingRule	ExecuteScalingRule	Executes a scaling rule.
ScaleWithAdjustment	ScaleWithAdjustment	Scales instances in a scaling group based on the specified scaling policy.
AttachInstances	AttachInstances	Adds instances to a scaling group. You can call the AttachInstances operation to add independent Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instances, elastic container instances, or non-Alibaba Cloud instances to your scaling group to provide services. You can also call this operation to change the state of ECS instances in your scaling group from Economical Mode to In Service.
RemoveInstances	RemoveInstances	Removes one or more Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instances or elastic container instances from a scaling group.
DetachInstances	DetachInstances	Removes one or more Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instances or elastic container instances from a scaling group.

Scheduled tasks

API	Title	Description
CreateScheduledTask	CreateScheduledTask	Creates a scheduled task. A scheduled task is a type of scaling task that enables automatic execution of a specific scaling rule at a specified point in time. You can call the CreateScheduledTask operation to create a scheduled task to implement automatic scaling of computing resources. This ensures your business continuity and minimizes resource costs.
ModifyScheduledTask	ModifyScheduledTask	Modifies a scheduled task.
