User token. It can be obtained by calling the IAM API used to obtain a user token. The value of X-Subject-Token in the response header is a token.
Table 3 Request body parameters

Parameter

Mandatory

Type

Description

description

No

String

Gateway description. The value can contain up to 255 characters except > and <.

maintain_begin

No

String

Start time of the maintenance time window. It must be in the format "xx:00:00". The value of xx can be 02, 06, 10, 14, 18, or 22.

During the maintenance time period, O&M personnel perform maintenance on the gateway. During this period, services can still be used, but occasionally there may be temporary interruptions. Scheduled maintenance occurs infrequently (typically once every several months).

maintain_end

No

String

End time of the maintenance time window. It must be in the format "xx:00:00". There is a 4-hour difference between the start time and end time.

During the maintenance time period, O&M personnel perform maintenance on the gateway. During this period, services can still be used, but occasionally there may be temporary interruptions. Scheduled maintenance occurs infrequently (typically once every several months).

instance_name

Yes

String

Gateway name.

Enter 3 to 64 characters, starting with a letter. Only letters, digits, hyphens (-), and underscores (_) are allowed.

Minimum: 3

Maximum: 64

instance_id

No

String

Gateway ID, which will be automatically generated if you do not specify this parameter.

spec_id

Yes

String

Gateway edition. Options:

  • BASIC
  • PROFESSIONAL
  • ENTERPRISE
  • PLATINUM

Enumeration values:

  • BASIC
  • PROFESSIONAL
  • ENTERPRISE
  • PLATINUM

vpc_id

Yes

String

VPC ID.

You can obtain it in either of the following ways:

  • Method 1: Log in to the VPC console, and click the name of a VPC to view the VPC ID on the displayed details page.
  • Method 2: Call the corresponding VPC API. For details, see section "Querying VPCs" in the VPC API Reference.

subnet_id

Yes

String

Subnet network ID.

You can obtain it in either of the following ways:

  • Method 1: Log in to the VPC console and click the target subnet on the Subnets page. You can view the network ID on the displayed page.
  • Method 2: Call the corresponding VPC API. For details, see section "Querying Subnets" in the VPC API Reference.

security_group_id

Yes

String

ID of the security group to which the gateway belongs.

You can obtain it in either of the following ways:

  • Method 1: Log in to the VPC console. Choose Access Control > Security Groups in the navigation pane. On the Security Groups page, click the target security group. Then view the security group ID on the displayed page.
  • Method 2: Call the corresponding VPC API. For details, see section "Querying Security Groups" in the VPC API Reference.

eip_id

No

String

EIP ID.

This parameter is required if public access is enabled for the gateway and loadbalancer_provider is set to lvs. After you bind an EIP to the gateway, users can access APIs in the gateway from public networks using the EIP.

To obtain an EIP ID, log in to the VPC console, and choose "Elastic IP and Bandwidth" > "EIPs" in the navigation pane. Click the name of the target EIP, and view the EIP ID on the displayed page.

enterprise_project_id

No

String

Enterprise project ID. This parameter is required for an enterprise account.

You can obtain it in either of the following ways:

  • Method 1: Log in to the Enterprise Project Management page, click the name of the target enterprise project, and view the project ID on the displayed page.
  • Method 2: Call the corresponding project management API. For details, see section "Querying the Enterprise Project List" in the Enterprise Management API Reference.

available_zone_ids

Yes

Array of strings

AZs.

An AZ is a physical region where resources use independent power supply and networks. AZs are physically isolated but interconnected through an internal network. To enhance application availability, create gateways in different AZs.

To obtain AZ information, call the API used to query AZs.

bandwidth_size

No

Integer

Outbound access bandwidth.

This parameter is required if public outbound access is enabled for the gateway. After you configure the bandwidth for the gateway, users can access resources on public networks.

Default: 5

bandwidth_charging_mode

  • traffic

ipv6_enable

No

Boolean

Indicates whether public access with an IPv6 address is supported.

This parameter is not used currently.

loadbalancer_provider

No

String

Type of the load balancer used by the gateway.

  • This field is discarded. Whether to use ELB or LVS is determined by the region of your gateway. For details, see section "Notes and Constraints" in the API Gateway Service Overview.
