Function

This API is used to query the database specifications of a specified DB engine version.

URI

  • URI format

    GET https://{Endpoint}/v3/{project_id}/flavors/{database_name}?version_name={version_name}

  • Parameter description

    Table 1 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

    Example value for MySQL: ["5.6","5.7","8.0"]

    instance_mode

    String

    Indicates the DB instance type. Its value can be any of the following:

    • ha: indicates primary/standby DB instances.

    • replica: indicates read replicas.

    • single: indicates single DB instances.

    az_status

    Map<String, String>

    Indicates the specification status in an AZ. Its value can be any of the following:
