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.

Request parameters

Parameter

Type

Required

Description

Example

ProtocolServiceId

string

Yes

The ID of the protocol service. You can obtain the protocol service ID from the response of the CreateProtocolService operation, or query it by calling the DescribeProtocolService operation.

FileSystemId

string

Yes

The ID of the file system.

cpfs-099394bd928c****

Description

string

No

The description of the protocol service.

Limits:

  • The description must be 2 to 128 characters in length.

  • The description must start with a letter or a Chinese character and cannot start with http:// or https://.

  • The description can contain digits, colons (:), underscores (_), or hyphens (-).

  • Spaces and other special characters are not allowed. Valid example: My-Protocol-Service_01.

My-Protocol-Service_01

DryRun

boolean

No

Specifies whether to perform a dry run for this modification request. A dry run checks parameter validity and dependencies without actually modifying the instance or incurring charges.

Valid values:

  • true: Sends a dry run request without modifying the protocol service. The dry run checks whether required parameters are specified, whether the request format is valid, and whether business constraints and dependencies are met. If the check fails, the corresponding error is returned. If the check succeeds, HTTP status code 200 is returned.

  • false (default): Sends a normal request. After the check succeeds, the protocol service is directly modified.

false

ClientToken

string

No

The client token that is used to ensure the idempotence of the request. You can use the client to generate the token, but make sure that the token is unique among different requests.

The token can contain only ASCII characters and cannot exceed 64 characters in length. For more information, see How to ensure idempotence.

Note

If you do not specify this parameter, the system automatically uses the RequestId of the API request as the ClientToken. The RequestId may vary for each API request.
