Querying Instances in an AS Group

Function

This API is used to query instances in an AS group based on search criteria. The results are displayed by page.

  • Search criteria can be the instance lifecycle status, instance health status, instance protection status, start line number, and number of records in the AS group.
  • If no search criteria are specified, a maximum of 20 instances in an AS group can be queried by default.

URI

GET /autoscaling-api/v1/{project_id}/scaling_group_instance/{scaling_group_id}/list

You can type the question mark (?) and ampersand (&) at the end of the URI to define multiple search criteria. Instances in an AS group can be searched by all optional parameters in the following table. For details, see the example request.
