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

ListenerId

string

Yes

The listener ID.

lsn-bp1bpn0kn908w4nbw****@80

DryRun

boolean

No

Specifies whether to only perform a dry run for the request. Valid values:

  • true: sends a dry run request and does not delete the listener. The system checks whether required parameters are specified, the request format is valid, and service limits are met. If the request fails the check, the corresponding error is returned. If the request passes the check, the DryRunOperation error code is returned.

  • false (default): sends a regular request. If the request passes the check, an HTTP 2xx status code is returned and the operation is performed.

false

ClientToken

string

No

The client token that is used to ensure the idempotence of the request.

You can generate a value for this parameter on the client to ensure that the value 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 of each API request is unique.

RegionId

string

No

The region ID of the Network Load Balancer (NLB) instance.

You can call the DescribeRegions operation to obtain region IDs.
