Querying Information about Available Data Flows

Function

This API is used to query information about available data flows for real-time migration, real-time synchronization, and real-time disaster recovery, based on different parameters.

Authorization Information

Each account has all the permissions required to call all APIs, but IAM users must be assigned the required permissions.

  • If you are using role/policy-based authorization, see Permissions and Supported Actions for details on the required permissions.
  • If you are using identity policy-based authorization, no identity policy-based permissions are required for calling this API.
