1. API Description

Domain name for API request: redis.intl.tencentcloudapi.com.

This API is used to query the parameter list of an instance.

A maximum of 20 requests can be initiated per second for this API.

We recommend you to use API Explorer
Try it
API Explorer provides a range of capabilities, including online call, signature authentication, SDK code generation, and API quick search. It enables you to view the request, response, and auto-generated examples.

2. Input Parameters

The following request parameter list only provides API request parameters and some common parameters. For the complete common parameter list, see Common Request Parameters.

Parameter Name Required Type Description
Action Yes String Common Params. The value used for this API: DescribeInstanceParams.
Version Yes String Common Params. The value used for this API: 2018-04-12.
Region Yes String Common Params. For more information, please see the list of regions supported by the product.
InstanceId Yes String ID of a specified instance, such as "crs-xjhsdj****" Log in to the Redis console and copy the instance ID in the instance list.

3. Output Parameters

Parameter Name Type Description
TotalCount Integer Total number of the parameter lists
InstanceEnumParam Array of InstanceEnumParam Instance parameter in Enum type
InstanceIntegerParam Array of InstanceIntegerParam Instance parameter in Integer type
InstanceTextParam Array of InstanceTextParam Instance parameter in Char type
InstanceMultiParam Array of InstanceMultiParam Instance parameter in Multi type
RequestId String The unique request ID, generated by the server, will be returned for every request (if the request fails to reach the server for other reasons, the request will not obtain a RequestId). RequestId is required for locating a problem.

4. Example

Example1 Querying the list of instance parameters

This example shows you how to query the parameter information of a specified instance.

Input Example
