Server Load Balancer:UpdateListenerLogConfig

Last Updated:Sep 02, 2026

Updates the log-related properties of a listener, such as access logs.

Operation description

UpdateListenerLogConfig is an asynchronous operation. After a request ID is returned, the log configuration of the listener is not yet updated, and the system continues to process the update task in the background. You can call GetListenerAttribute to query the update status of the listener log configuration:

  • If the listener is in the Configuring state, the log configuration of the listener is being updated.

  • If the listener is in the Running state, the log configuration of the listener is updated.

Note

You can update the log configuration of a listener only after you enable access logging for the instance.

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 ID of the Application Load Balancer (ALB) instance listener.

lsn-o4u54y73wq7b******

ClientToken

string

No

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

You can use the client to generate the token, but you must 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 API request as the ClientToken. The RequestId may be different for each API request.

DryRun

boolean

No

Specifies whether to perform only a dry run, without performing the actual request. Valid values:

  • true: performs only a dry run. The log configuration of the listener is not updated. The system checks the request for potential issues, including missing parameter values, incorrect request syntax, and service limits. If the request fails the dry run, an error code is returned. If the request passes the dry run, the DryRunOperation error code is returned.

  • false (default): performs a dry run and performs the actual request. If the request passes the dry run, an HTTP_2xx status code is returned and the operation is performed.

true

AccessLogRecordCustomizedHeadersEnabled

boolean

No

Specifies whether to include custom header fields in access logs. Valid values:

  • true: includes custom header fields.

  • false (default): does not include custom header fields.

Note

You can set this parameter to true only when the access logging switch AccessLogEnabled is turned on for the instance.

true

AccessLogTracingConfig

object

No

The Xtrace configuration information.

TracingEnabled

boolean

Yes

The status of the Xtrace feature. Valid values:

  • true: enabled.

  • false (default): disabled.

Note

You can set this parameter to true only when the access logging switch AccessLogEnabled is turned on for the instance.

true

TracingSample

integer

No

The Xtrace sampling rate.

Valid values: 1 to 10000.

Note

This parameter takes effect only when TracingEnabled is set to true.

100

TracingType

string

No

The type of Xtrace. Valid values: Zipkin and OpenTelemetry.

Note

This parameter takes effect only when TracingEnabled is set to true.
