    Resource Orchestration Service:CreateChangeSet

    Last Updated:Oct 13, 2023

    Creates change sets.

    Operation Description

    Limits

    You can create and execute change sets to update running stacks. For more information about change sets, see Overview.

    Usage notes

    • A stack can contain up to 20 change sets.
    • Change sets reflect only the changes of stacks. Change sets do not reflect whether stacks are updated.
    • You cannot use change sets to check the following items: whether the upper limit of your Alibaba Cloud account is reached, whether resources that cannot be updated are updated, and whether your Alibaba Cloud account has permissions to modify resources. These items may cause stack updates to fail. If stacks fail to be updated, Resource Orchestration Service (ROS) rolls back the resources to the original status.

    In this topic, a change set named MyChangeSet is created in the China (Hangzhou) region. In this example, the template of the stack whose ID is 4a6c9851-3b0f-4f5f-b4ca-a14bf691**** is updated to {"ROSTemplateFormatVersion":"2015-09-01"}.

    debugging

    You can run this interface directly in OpenAPI Explorer, saving you the trouble of calculating signatures. After running successfully, OpenAPI Explorer can automatically generate SDK code samples.

    Authorization information

    The following table shows the authorization information corresponding to the API. The authorization information can be used in the Action policy element to grant a RAM user or RAM role the permissions to call this API operation. Description:

    • Operation: the value that you can use in the Action element to specify the operation on a resource.
    • Access level: the access level of each operation. The levels are read, write, and list.
    • Resource type: the type of the resource on which you can authorize the RAM user or the RAM role to perform the operation. Take note of the following items:
      • The required resource types are displayed in bold characters.
      • If the permissions cannot be granted at the resource level, All Resources is used in the Resource type column of the operation.
    • Condition Key: the condition key that is defined by the cloud service.
    • Associated operation: other operations that the RAM user or the RAM role must have permissions to perform to complete the operation. To complete the operation, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform the associated operations.

    stringNo

    The callback URL that is used to receive stack events. Valid values:

    • HTTP POST URL

    Each URL can be up to 1,024 bytes in length.

    • eventbridge

    When the status of a stack changes, ROS sends an event notification to the EventBridge service. To view the event information, perform the following operations: Log on to the EventBridge console. In the left-side navigation pane, click Event Buses.

    Note This feature is supported in the China (Hangzhou), China (Shanghai), China (Beijing), China (Hong Kong), and China (Zhangjiakou) regions.

    You can specify up to five callback URLs. When the status of a stack changes, ROS sends a notification to the specified URL. When rollback is enabled for the stack, notifications are sent if the stack is in the CREATE_ROLLBACK or ROLLBACK state, but are not sent if the stack is in the CREATE_FAILED, UPDATE_FAILED, or IN_PROGRESS state. ROS does not send notifications when the stack is in the IN_PROGRESS state.
    ROS sends notifications regardless of whether you specify the Outputs section. The following sample code provides an example on the content of a notification:

    {
   "Outputs": [
       {
           "Description": "No description given",
           "OutputKey": "InstanceId",
           "OutputValue": "i-xxx"
       }
   ],

    ResourcesToImportobject []No

    The resources that you want to import into the stack.

    ResourceIdentifierstringYes

    The key-value mapping between strings. The value is a JSON string that identifies resource N that you want to import.
    A key is an identifier for a resource and a value is an assignment of data to the key. For example, VpcId is a key that indicates the ID of a virtual private cloud (VPC), and vpc-2zevx9ios**** is a value that is assigned to VpcId. You can call the GetTemplateSummary operation to obtain the key of a resource.

    Note This parameter takes effect only if you set ChangeSetType to IMPORT. ResourcesToImport is optional. If you specify ResourcesToImport, you must also specify ResourcesToImport.N.ResourceIdentifier.
    		{"VpcId": "vpc-2zevx9ios******"}
    LogicalResourceIdstringYes

    The logical ID of resource N that you want to import. The logical ID specifies the name of resource N that is defined in the template.

    Note This parameter takes effect only if you set ChangeSetType to IMPORT. ResourcesToImport is optional. If you specify ResourcesToImport, you must also specify ResourcesToImport.N.LogicalResourceId.
    		Vpc
    ResourceTypestringYes

    The type of resource N that you want to import. The resource type must be the same as the resource type that is defined in the template.

    Note This parameter takes effect only if you set ChangeSetType to IMPORT. ResourcesToImport is optional. If you specify ResourcesToImport, you must also specify ResourcesToImport.N.ResourceType.
    		ALIYUN::ECS::VPC

    ParallelismlongNo

    The maximum number of concurrent operations that can be performed on resources. By default, this parameter is empty. You can set this parameter to an integer that is greater than or equal to 0. If you set this parameter to a specific value, ROS associates the value with the stack. The value can affect subsequent operations on the stack.

    This parameter takes effect only if you set ChangeSetType to CREATE or UPDATE.

    • Valid values for change sets of the CREATE type:

      • If you set this parameter to an integer that is greater than 0, the integer is used.
      • If you set this parameter to 0 or leave this parameter empty, no limit is imposed on ROS stacks. However, the default value in Terraform is used for Terraform stacks. In most cases, the default value in Terraform is 10.

    • Valid values for change sets of the UPDATE type:

      • If you set this parameter to an integer that is greater than 0, the integer is used.
      • If you set this parameter to 0, no limit is imposed on ROS stacks. However, the default value in Terraform is used for Terraform stacks. In most cases, the default value in Terraform is 10.
      • If you leave this parameter empty, the value that you specified for this parameter in the previous request is used. If you left this parameter empty in the previous request, no limit is imposed on ROS stacks. However, the default value in Terraform is used for Terraform stacks. In most cases, the default value in Terraform is 10.
