Server Load Balancer:AssociateAdditionalCertificatesWithListener

Last Updated:Mar 31, 2026

Associates additional certificates with a listener.

Operation description

The AssociateAdditionalCertificatesWithListener is an asynchronous operation. After you send a request, the system returns a request ID and runs the task in the background. You can call the GetListenerAttribute operation to query the status of the task:

  • If an HTTPS or QUIC listener is in the Associating state, the certificate association is in progress.

  • If an HTTPS or QUIC listener is in the Associated state, the certificate association is complete.

Try this API in OpenAPI Explorer, no manual signing needed. Successful calls auto-generate SDK code matching your parameters. Download it with built-in credential security for local usage.

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

ListenerId

string

Yes

The listener ID.

This parameter applies only to HTTPS and QUIC listeners.

lsn-5qnirjhpt******

Certificates

array<object>

Yes

The additional certificates.

object

No

An additional certificate.

CertificateId

string

Yes

The certificate ID. The certificate must be a server certificate.

Note

The certificate ID must be globally unique and end with a region ID. For example, 1011****-cn-hangzhou.

1011****-cn-hangzhou

ClientToken

string

No

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

You can generate a client token and make sure that the token is unique among different requests. The token can contain only ASCII characters.

Note

If you do not specify this parameter, the system automatically uses the RequestId of the request as the ClientToken. The RequestId of each API request is unique.

DryRun

boolean

No

Specifies whether to perform a dry run. Valid values:

  • true: performs a dry run. The system checks the required parameters, request format, and service limits without associating the additional certificate. If the request fails the dry run, an error message is returned. If the request passes the dry run, the DryRunOperation error code is returned.

  • false (default): sends a normal request. If the request passes the check, the system returns an HTTP 2xx status code and performs the operation.
