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.

PlannedStartTime

string

No

The earliest time to start the scheduled upgrade or downgrade task. Specify the time in the YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ format. The time is in UTC.

Note
  • This parameter takes effect only when you set ModifyType to Upgrade or Downgrade.

  • The start time must be a point in time within the next 24 hours. For example, if the current time is 2021-01-14T09:00:00Z, you can specify a start time that is between 2021-01-14T09:00:00Z and 2021-01-15T09:00:00Z.

  • If you leave this parameter empty, the upgrade or downgrade task is performed immediately.

The latest time to start the scheduled task. Specify the time in the YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ format. The time is in UTC.

Note
  • The latest start time must be at least 30 minutes later than the earliest start time.

  • If you specify PlannedStartTime but not this parameter, the latest start time of the task is PlannedStartTime + 30 minutes by default. For example, if you set PlannedStartTime to 2021-01-14T09:00:00Z and leave this parameter empty, the task starts no later than 2021-01-14T09:30:00Z.
