Operation description

This operation is used to copy all policies from a source virtual private cloud (VPC) firewall policy group to a destination VPC firewall policy group.

Before performing this operation, back up your policies. For more information, see policy backup.

After this operation is complete, the policies in the destination VPC firewall policy group are completely replaced with the policies from the source VPC firewall policy group.

The source VPC firewall policy group and the destination VPC firewall policy group must belong to the same Alibaba Cloud account.

QPS limit

The single-user QPS limit for this operation is 10 calls per second. If the number of calls per second exceeds the limit, throttling is triggered. This may affect your business. Invoke this operation as appropriate.

Test

RAM authorization

The table below describes the authorization required to call this API. You can define it in a Resource Access Management (RAM) policy. The table's columns are detailed below:

  • Action: The actions can be used in the Action element of RAM permission policy statements to grant permissions to perform the operation.

  • API: The API that you can call to perform the action.

  • Access level: The predefined level of access granted for each API. Valid values: create, list, get, update, and delete.

  • Resource type: The type of the resource that supports authorization to perform the action. It indicates if the action supports resource-level permission. The specified resource must be compatible with the action. Otherwise, the policy will be ineffective.

    • For APIs with resource-level permissions, required resource types are marked with an asterisk (*). Specify the corresponding Alibaba Cloud Resource Name (ARN) in the Resource element of the policy.

    • For APIs without resource-level permissions, it is shown as All Resources. Use an asterisk (*) in the Resource element of the policy.

  • Condition key: The condition keys defined by the service. The key allows for granular control, applying to either actions alone or actions associated with specific resources. In addition to service-specific condition keys, Alibaba Cloud provides a set of common condition keys applicable across all RAM-supported services.

  • Dependent action: The dependent actions required to run the action. To complete the action, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform all dependent actions.
