CreateRules - Server Load Balancer

Creates multiple forwarding rules at a time.

Operation description

When you call this operation, take note of the following limits:

When you configure the Redirect action, do not use the default values for parameters other than HttpCode.
If you specify multiple actions in a forward rule, you must specify the ForwardGroup parameter along with the Rewrite parameter.
CreateRules is an asynchronous operation. After a request is sent, the system returns a request ID and runs the task in the background. You can call the ListRules operation to query the status of the forwarding rules.
- If the forwarding rules are in the Provisioning state, the forwarding rules are being created.
- If the forwarding rules are in the Available state, the forwarding rules are created.
You can set RuleConditions and RuleActions to add conditions and actions to a forwarding rule. Take note of the following limits on the number of conditions and the number of actions in each forwarding rule:
- Conditions: 5 for each basic ALB instance, 10 for each standard ALB instance, and 10 for each WAF-enabled ALB instance.
- Actions: 3 for each basic ALB instance, 5 for each standard ALB instance, and 5 for each WAF-enabled ALB instance.

Debugging

You can run this interface directly in OpenAPI Explorer, saving you the trouble of calculating signatures. After running successfully, OpenAPI Explorer can automatically generate SDK code samples.

Authorization information

The following table shows the authorization information corresponding to the API. The authorization information can be used in the Action policy element to grant a RAM user or RAM role the permissions to call this API operation. Description:

Operation: the value that you can use in the Action element to specify the operation on a resource.
Access level: the access level of each operation. The levels are read, write, and list.
Resource type: the type of the resource on which you can authorize the RAM user or the RAM role to perform the operation. Take note of the following items:
- The required resource types are displayed in bold characters.
- If the permissions cannot be granted at the resource level, All Resources is used in the Resource type column of the operation.
Condition Key: the condition key that is defined by the cloud service.
Associated operation: other operations that the RAM user or the RAM role must have permissions to perform to complete the operation. To complete the operation, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform the associated operations.

Request parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description	Example
ListenerId	string	Yes	The ID of the Application Load Balancer (ALB) instance.	lsr-bp1bpn0kn908w4nbw****
ClientToken	string	No	The client token that is used to ensure the idempotence of the request. You can use the client to generate the token, but you must make sure that the token is unique among different requests. The token can contain only ASCII characters. Note If you do not specify this parameter, the system automatically uses the request ID as the client token. The request ID may be different for each request.	5A2CFF0E-5718-45B5-9D4D-70B3FF3898
DryRun	boolean	No	Specifies whether to perform only a dry run, without performing the actual request. Valid values: true: performs a dry run.

If the request passes the dry run, the `DryRunOperation` error code is returned. false (default): performs a dry run and sends the request. If the request passes the dry run, a `2xx HTTP` status code is returned and the operation is performed.	false
