Anti-DDoS:Create an Anti-DDoS Proxy instance by API

Last Updated:Apr 02, 2026

Anti-DDoS Proxy does not provide a dedicated API for instance creation. Instead, call the CreateInstance operation from the Alibaba Cloud Transaction and Billing Management API to provision an Anti-DDoS Proxy instance programmatically.

Background

The Alibaba Cloud Transaction and Billing Management API provides a unified set of operations for managing Alibaba Cloud resources, including querying service prices, managing instances, and retrieving billing information. For the full list of supported operations, see API overview.

To create an Anti-DDoS Proxy instance, call CreateInstance. For details on signing and structuring requests, see Request body and signature mechanism of V3.

Usage notes

  • Payment is processed automatically when the CreateInstance call succeeds. For pricing details, see Billing overview.

  • If your account is on the international site (alibabacloud.com), it must have a credit control identity. Contact your business manager if it does not.
