You can call the DescribeDBInstanceSSL operation to query the SSL encryption settings of an ApsaraDB RDS instance.
Before you call this operation, make sure that your instance is one of the following instances:
- ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL instances that do not run RDS Basic Edition
- ApsaraDB RDS for SQL Server instances
- ApsaraDB RDS for PostgreSQL instances that use standard SSDs or enhanced SSDs (ESSDs)
