DeactiveFlowLog - Virtual Private Cloud - Alibaba Cloud Documentation Center

Disables a flow log. After a flow log is disabled, the system no longer captures the traffic information about a resource.

Operation description

The DeactiveFlowLog operation is asynchronous. After you send the request, the system returns a request ID. However, the operation is still being performed in the system background. You can call the DescribeFlowLogs operation to query the status of a flow log:
- If the flow log is in the Deactivating state, the flow log is being disabled.
- If the flow log is in the Inactive state, the flow log is disabled.
You cannot repeatedly call the DeactiveFlowLog operation to disable a flow log within the specified period of time.
