Global Accelerator:UpdateAcceleratorCrossBorderMode

Last Updated:Sep 17, 2026

Invokes the UpdateAcceleratorCrossBorderMode operation to modify the transmission network quality type of an Alibaba Cloud Global Accelerator (GA) instance.

Operation description

This operation modifies the transmission network quality type of a Standard Alibaba Cloud Global Accelerator (GA) instance whose bandwidth billing method is pay-by-data-transfer. Before modifying the transmission network quality type, make sure you have completed the following operations:

  • You have activated the Cloud Data Transfer (CDT) service. When you invoke CreateAccelerator with the BandwidthBillingType parameter set to CDT to create a Standard Alibaba Cloud Global Accelerator (GA) instance whose bandwidth billing method is pay-by-data-transfer, the system automatically activates the CDT service for you. Traffic fees are settled by CDT through unified settlement.

  • If you want to change the transmission network quality type of the Alibaba Cloud Global Accelerator (GA) instance to cross-border acceleration over dedicated lines, that is, set CrossBorderMode to private, make sure that the current account has completed enterprise real-name registration. For more information, see How do I commit real-name registration?.

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

RegionId

string

No

The region ID of the Alibaba Cloud Global Accelerator (GA) instance. Set the value to cn-hangzhou.

cn-hangzhou

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 you must make sure that the token is unique among different requests. The client token can contain only ASCII characters.

Note

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

AcceleratorId

string

Yes

The instance ID of the Alibaba Cloud Global Accelerator (GA) instance.

Note

The Alibaba Cloud Global Accelerator (GA) instance must use the pay-by-data-transfer bandwidth billing method.

ga-bp1odcab8tmno0hdq****

CrossBorderMode

string

Yes

The transmission network quality type of the Alibaba Cloud Global Accelerator (GA) instance. Valid values:

  • bgpPro: premium bandwidth cross-border acceleration. Uses BGP premium lines for cross-border network acceleration. Compared with cross-border dedicated lines, this type simplifies the enterprise real-name registration flow.

  • private: cross-border acceleration over dedicated lines. Uses cross-border dedicated lines. Compared with premium bandwidth cross-border acceleration, this type provides better acceleration performance but requires enterprise real-name verification.

Description

400 NotExist.Accelerator The accelerated instance does not exist. The GA instance does not exist.
400 StateError.Accelerator The state of the accelerated instance is invalid. The status of the GA instance is invalid.
400 NotSupportChangeCrossBorderMode.Accelerator Currently Accelerator does not support to update cross-border mode. The current GA instance does not allow you change the cross-border mode.
400 Error.ComplianceIssue The current instance is not allowed to use the cross-border special line before obtaining cross-border qualification. You cannot enable cross-border Express Connect circuits for the current instance before your application is approved.
400 CrossBorderStatusNotOpen.Accelerator The cross-border mode does not allow modification because the cross-border switch is not turned on. You cannot modify the cross-border acceleration mode because cross-border acceleration is disabled.
500 UnknownError An error occurred while processing your request. Please try again. If the error persists, please submit a ticket. An error occurred while the request was being processed. Try again later.
