Querying Database Specifications¶
Function¶
This API is used to query the database specifications of a specified DB engine version.
Before calling an API, you need to understand the API in Authentication.
Before calling this API, obtain the required region and endpoint.
URI¶
URI format
GET https://{Endpoint}/v3/{project_id}/flavors/{database_name}?version_name={version_name}
Parameter description
¶ Name
Mandatory
Description
project_id
Yes
Specifies the project ID of a tenant in a region.
For details about how to obtain the project ID, see Obtaining a Project ID.
database_name
Yes
Specifies the DB engine name. Its value can be any of the following and is case-insensitive:
MySQL
PostgreSQL
SQLServer
version_name
No
Specifies the database version. For details about how to obtain the database version, see section Querying Version Information About a DB Engine. For details about the version, see DB Engines and Versions.
spec_code
No
Specifies the specification code.
Important
NOTICE: For Microsoft SQL Server, Only 2022_EE, 2019_EE and 2017_EE support the creation of read replicas and do not support the creation of single DB instances.
The format of the specification code is: {spec code}{instance mode}.
spec code can be obtained from DB Instance Classes.
instance mode can be any of the following:
For single DB instances, the value is null. Example spe_code: rds.mysql.n1.xlarge
For primary/standby DB instances, the value is .ha. Example spe_code: rds.mysql.n1.xlarge.ha
For read replicas, the value is .rr. Example spe_code: rds.mysql.n1.xlarge.rr
