Querying DB Instances¶

Function¶

This API is used to query DB instances according to search criteria. Before using this API:

Learn how to authorize and authenticate it.
Obtain the required region and endpoint.

URI¶

GET /v3/{project_id}/instances

**Table 1** URI parameters¶
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
project_id	Yes	String	Project ID of a tenant in a region. To obtain this value, see Obtaining a Project ID.

**Table 2** Query parameters¶
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
id	No	String	DB instance ID. The asterisk (``) is reserved for the system. If the DB instance ID starts with , it indicates that fuzzy match is performed based on the value following . Otherwise, the exact match is performed based on the DB instance ID. The value cannot contain only asterisks (``).
name	No	String	DB instance name. The asterisk (``) is reserved for the system. If the instance name starts with , it indicates that fuzzy match is performed based on the value following . Otherwise, the exact match is performed based on the instance name. The value cannot contain only asterisks (``).
type	No	String	DB instance type to be queried. Currently, its value can only be Cluster.
datastore_type	No	String	DB type. Currently, only gaussdb-mysql is supported.
vpc_id	No	String	VPC ID.
subnet_id	No	String	Network ID of the subnet.
private_ip	No	String	Private IP address.
offset	No	Integer	Index offset. If offset is set to N, the resource query starts from the N+1 piece of data. The value is 0 by default, indicating that the query starts from the first piece of data. The value cannot be a negative number.
limit	No	Integer	Number of records to be queried. The default value is 100. The value must be a positive integer. The minimum value is 1 and the maximum value is 100.
tags	No	String	Query based on the DB instance tag key and value. {key} indicates the tag key, and {value} indicates the tag value. To query DB instances with multiple tag keys and values, separate key-value pairs with commas (,). The key must be unique. Multiple keys are in AND relationship.

Request Parameters¶

**Table 3** Request header parameters¶
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
X-Auth-Token	Yes	String	User token.
X-Language	No	String	Language.

volume	MysqlVolumeInfo object	Storage disk information.
backup_strategy	MysqlBackupStrategy object	Automated backup policy.
time_zone	String	Time zone.
dedicated_resource_id	String	Dedicated resource pool ID. This parameter is returned only when the DB instance belongs to a dedicated resource pool.
tags	Array of InstanceTagItem objects	Tag list.

**Table 6** MysqlDatastoreWithKernelVersion¶
Parameter	Type	Description
type	String	DB engine. Currently, only gaussdb-mysql is supported.
version	String	DB version. To obtain details about supported DB engine versions, call the API for querying the DB engine versions.
kernel_version	String	Database kernel version.

**Table 7** MysqlFlavorInfo¶

It must be a valid value in the "hh:mm-HH:MM" format. The current time is in the UTC format. The HH value must be 1 greater than the hh value. The values of mm and MM must be the same and must be set to 00.
keep_days	String	Automated backup retention days. Value: 1-732.

**Table 10** InstanceTagItem¶
Parameter	Type	Description
key	String	Tag key.
value	String	Tag value.

Status code: 400
