Disables a flow log. After a flow log is disabled, traffic information about a resource is no longer captured.

Usage notes

  • The DeactiveFlowLog operation is asynchronous. After you send the request, the system returns a request ID. However, the operation is still being performed in the system background. You can call the DescribeFlowLogs operation to query the status of a flow log:
    • If the flow log is in the Deactivating state, the flow log is being disabled.
    • If the flow log is in the Inactive state, the flow log is disabled.
  • You cannot repeatedly call the DeactiveFlowLog operation to disable a flow log within the specified period of time.

Debugging

OpenAPI Explorer automatically calculates the signature value. For your convenience, we recommend that you call this operation in OpenAPI Explorer. OpenAPI Explorer dynamically generates the sample code of the operation for different SDKs.
