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

BackupPlanId

string

Yes

The ID of the backup plan.

dbs1h****usfa

BackupObjects

string

Yes

The backup objects, specified as a JSON string. The format is as follows:

[
    {
        "DBName":"The name of the database to be backed up",
        "SchemaName":"The name of the schema to be backed up",
        "TableIncludes":[{
        	"TableName":"The name of the table to be backed up"
        }],
        "TableExcludes":[{
            "TableName":"The name of a table in the database that does not need to be backed up"
        }]
    }
]
  • If only DBName is specified and no rules are configured for other sub-objects, all objects in the database are backed up.

  • If DBName is specified and rules are configured for some objects, objects without configured rules are not backed up by default. Object names can be defined using the following regular expressions:
    • A period (.) matches any single character except for \r\n.

    • An asterisk (*) matches the preceding subexpression zero or more times. For example, h*llo matches strings such as hllo and heeeello.

    • A question mark (?) matches the preceding subexpression zero or one time. For example, h.?llo matches hllo and hello, but not haello.

    • A character set ([characters]) matches any single character within the brackets. For example, h[aello] matches hallo and hello.

    • A negated character set ([^characters]) matches any single character not within the brackets. For example, h[^ae]llo matches hcllo and hdllo, but not hallo or hello.

    • A character range ([character1-character2]) matches any character within the specified range, such as [0-9] or [a-z].

Note

SchemaName and NewSchemaName are used only for MSSQL. For other databases, use the DBName and NewDBName parameters to define database names.

[ { "DBName":"17xxx92xxxx374", "SchemaName":"gy9xnj8xxxxxx", "TableIncludes":[{ "TableName":"test1" }], "TableExcludes":[{ "TableName":"test2" }] } ]
