Resource Management:CreateMultiAccountDeliveryChannel

Last Updated:Aug 14, 2026

Creates a cross-account resource delivery channel.

Operation description

The management account of a resource directory or a delegated administrator account of Resource Center can create cross-account resource delivery in Resource Center. This delivers scheduled resource snapshots and resource configuration change events from resource directory members to Object Storage Service (OSS) or Simple Log Service (SLS). You can then consume standardized resource information from OSS or SLS.

Two delivery scenarios are supported for scheduled resource snapshot delivery:

  • Standard scheduled resource snapshot delivery: When the ResourceSnapshotDelivery.CustomExpression parameter is empty, standard scheduled resource snapshot delivery is used.

  • Custom scheduled resource snapshot delivery: When the ResourceSnapshotDelivery.CustomExpression parameter is not empty, custom scheduled resource snapshot delivery is used.

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.
