Parameter description

**Table 2** Parameter description¶
Name	Mandatory	Type	Description
offset	No	String	Specifies the index position. The query starts from the next piece of data indexed by this parameter. If action is set to count, this parameter is not transferred. If action is set to filter, this parameter must be a positive integer. The default value is 0, indicating that the query starts from the first piece of data.
limit	No	String	Specifies the number of resources to be queried. If action is set to count, this parameter is not transferred. If action is set to filter, the value range is from 1 to 100. If this parameter is not transferred, the first 100 DB instances are queried by default.
action	Yes	String	Specifies the operation identifier. If action is set to filter, instances are queried by tag filtering criteria. If action is set to count, only the total number of records is returned.
matches	No	Array of objects	Specifies the search field. If the value is left blank, the query is not based on the instance name or instance ID. If the value is not empty, see Table 4.
tags	No	Array of objects	Specifies the included tags. Each tag contains a maximum of 20 keys. For more information, see Table 3.

**Table 3** tags field data structure description¶
Name	Mandatory	Type	Description
key	Yes	String	Specifies the tag key. It contains a maximum of 36 Unicode characters. key cannot be empty, an empty string, or spaces. Before using key, delete spaces before and after the value. Note The character set of this parameter is not verified in the search process.
values	Yes	Array of strings	Lists the tag values. Each value contains a maximum of 43 Unicode characters and cannot contain spaces. Before using values, delete spaces before and after the value. If the values are null, it indicates querying any value. The values are in OR relationship.

**Table 4** matches field description¶
Name	Mandatory	Type	Description
key	Yes	String	Specifies the query criteria. The value can be instance_name or instance_id, indicating that the query is based on the instance name or instance ID.
value	Yes	String	Specifies the name or ID of the DB instance to be matched. You can call the API for querying DB instances to obtain the DB instance name or ID. If you do not have an instance, you can call the API used for creating an instance.
