vpc — Virtual Private Cloud

DescribeAddresses
POST
Query the information of one or multiple Elastic IPs.
Wire call
Converge Cloud is RPC over HTTP. There is one path — / — and the action travels in the X-TC-Action header. The /vpc/DescribeAddresses path used in the OpenAPI document is a documentation convenience so each action is addressable; it is not a route on the server.

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| AddressIds | string[] | — | List of unique IDs for identifying Elastic IP (EIP). The EIP unique ID is in the format of `eip-11112222`. You can use the DescribeAddresses API to obtain the AddressId. The parameters `AddressIds` and `Filters.address-id` cannot be specified simultaneously. |
| Filters | Filter[] | — | The maximum number of `Filters` per request is 10, and the maximum number of `Filter.Values` per request is 100. The detailed filter conditions are as follows: |
| Offset | integer | — | The Offset. The default value is 0. For more information on Offset, see the relevant section in the API Introduction. |
| Limit | integer | — | Number of returned results. Default value: 20. Maximum value: 100. For more information on Limit, see the relevant section in the API Introduction. |
Response
Fields are returned inside the Response envelope. Converge Cloud answers HTTP 200 for errors as well as successes, so read Response.Error rather than the status code — and test for the presence of that object, because Code is occasionally the empty string.
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| TotalCount | integer | Number of EIPs meeting the condition. |
| AddressSet | Address[] | List of EIPs details. |
| 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. |

}Behaviour
Unknown or released address ids return an empty set rather than an error. AddressStatus values include UNBIND, BIND and BIND_ENI.
