Covers 75 endpoints." version: 1.0.0 generator: lapsh --- # Amazon ElastiCache API version: 2015-02-02 ## Auth AWS SigV4 ## Base URL Not specified. ## Setup 1. Configure auth: AWS SigV4 3. POST / -- create first resource ## Endpoints 75 endpoints across 1 groups. See references/api-spec.lap for full details. ### root | Method | Path | Description | |--------|------|-------------| | POST | / | A tag is a key-value pair where the key and value are case-sensitive. You can use tags to categorize and track all your ElastiCache resources, with the exception of global replication group. When you add or remove tags on replication groups, those actions will be replicated to all nodes in the replication group. For more information, see Resource-level permissions. For example, you can use cost-allocation tags to your ElastiCache resources, Amazon generates a cost allocation report as a comma-separated value (CSV) file with your usage and costs aggregated by your tags. You can apply tags that represent business categories (such as cost centers, application names, or owners) to organize your costs across multiple services. For more information, see Using Cost Allocation Tags in Amazon ElastiCache in the ElastiCache User Guide. | | POST | / | Allows network ingress to a cache security group. Applications using ElastiCache must be running on Amazon EC2, and Amazon EC2 security groups are used as the authorization mechanism. You cannot authorize ingress from an Amazon EC2 security group in one region to an ElastiCache cluster in another region. | | POST | / | Apply the service update. For more information on service updates and applying them, see Applying Service Updates. | | POST | / | Stop the service update. For more information on service updates and stopping them, see Stopping Service Updates. | | POST | / | Complete the migration of data. | | POST | / | Creates a copy of an existing serverless cache’s snapshot. Available for Redis OSS and Serverless Memcached only. | | POST | / | Makes a copy of an existing snapshot. This operation is valid for Redis OSS only. Users or groups that have permissions to use the CopySnapshot operation can create their own Amazon S3 buckets and copy snapshots to it. To control access to your snapshots, use an IAM policy to control who has the ability to use the CopySnapshot operation. For more information about using IAM to control the use of ElastiCache operations, see Exporting Snapshots and Authentication & Access Control. You could receive the following error messages. Error Messages Error Message: The S3 bucket %s is outside of the region. Solution: Create an Amazon S3 bucket in the same region as your snapshot. For more information, see Step 1: Create an Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide. Error Message: The S3 bucket %s does not exist. Solution: Create an Amazon S3 bucket in the same region as your snapshot. For more information, see Step 1: Create an Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide. Error Message: The S3 bucket %s is not owned by the authenticated user. Solution: Create an Amazon S3 bucket in the same region as your snapshot. For more information, see Step 1: Create an Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide. Error Message: The authenticated user does not have sufficient permissions to perform the desired activity. Solution: Contact your system administrator to get the needed permissions. Error Message: The S3 bucket %s already contains an object with key %s. Solution: Give the TargetSnapshotName a new and unique value. If exporting a snapshot, you could alternatively create a new Amazon S3 bucket and use this same value for TargetSnapshotName. Error Message: ElastiCache has not been granted READ permissions %s on the S3 Bucket. Solution: Add List and Read permissions on the bucket. For more information, see Step 2: Grant ElastiCache Access to Your Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide. Error Message: ElastiCache has not been granted WRITE permissions %s on the S3 Bucket. Solution: Add Upload/Delete permissions on the bucket. For more information, see Step 2: Grant ElastiCache Access to Your Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide. Error Message: ElastiCache has not been granted READ_ACP permissions %s on the S3 Bucket. Solution: Add View Permissions on the bucket. For more information, see Step 2: Grant ElastiCache Access to Your Amazon S3 Bucket in the ElastiCache User Guide. | | POST | / | Creates a cluster. All nodes in the cluster run the same protocol-compliant cache engine software, either Memcached or Redis OSS. This operation is not supported for Redis OSS (cluster mode enabled) clusters. | | POST | / | Creates a new Amazon ElastiCache cache parameter group. An ElastiCache cache parameter group is a collection of parameters and their values that are applied to all of the nodes in any cluster or replication group using the CacheParameterGroup. A newly created CacheParameterGroup is an exact duplicate of the default parameter group for the CacheParameterGroupFamily. To customize the newly created CacheParameterGroup you can change the values of specific parameters. For more information, see: ModifyCacheParameterGroup in the ElastiCache API Reference. Parameters and Parameter Groups in the ElastiCache User Guide. | | POST | / | Creates a new cache security group. Use a cache security group to control access to one or more clusters. Cache security groups are only used when you are creating a cluster outside of an Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC). If you are creating a cluster inside of a VPC, use a cache subnet group instead. For more information, see CreateCacheSubnetGroup. | | POST | / | Creates a new cache subnet group. Use this parameter only when you are creating a cluster in an Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC). | | POST | / | Global Datastore for Redis OSS offers fully managed, fast, reliable and secure cross-region replication. Using Global Datastore for Redis OSS, you can create cross-region read replica clusters for ElastiCache (Redis OSS) to enable low-latency reads and disaster recovery across regions. For more information, see Replication Across Regions Using Global Datastore. The GlobalReplicationGroupIdSuffix is the name of the Global datastore. The PrimaryReplicationGroupId represents the name of the primary cluster that accepts writes and will replicate updates to the secondary cluster. | | POST | / | Creates a Redis OSS (cluster mode disabled) or a Redis OSS (cluster mode enabled) replication group. This API can be used to create a standalone regional replication group or a secondary replication group associated with a Global datastore. A Redis OSS (cluster mode disabled) replication group is a collection of nodes, where one of the nodes is a read/write primary and the others are read-only replicas. Writes to the primary are asynchronously propagated to the replicas. A Redis OSS cluster-mode enabled cluster is comprised of from 1 to 90 shards (API/CLI: node groups). Each shard has a primary node and up to 5 read-only replica nodes. The configuration can range from 90 shards and 0 replicas to 15 shards and 5 replicas, which is the maximum number or replicas allowed. The node or shard limit can be increased to a maximum of 500 per cluster if the Redis OSS engine version is 5.0.6 or higher. For example, you can choose to configure a 500 node cluster that ranges between 83 shards (one primary and 5 replicas per shard) and 500 shards (single primary and no replicas). Make sure there are enough available IP addresses to accommodate the increase. Common pitfalls include the subnets in the subnet group have too small a CIDR range or the subnets are shared and heavily used by other clusters. For more information, see Creating a Subnet Group. For versions below 5.0.6, the limit is 250 per cluster. To request a limit increase, see Amazon Service Limits and choose the limit type Nodes per cluster per instance type. When a Redis OSS (cluster mode disabled) replication group has been successfully created, you can add one or more read replicas to it, up to a total of 5 read replicas. If you need to increase or decrease the number of node groups (console: shards), you can use ElastiCache (Redis OSS) scaling. For more information, see Scaling ElastiCache (Redis OSS) Clusters in the ElastiCache User Guide. This operation is valid for Redis OSS only. | | POST | / | Creates a serverless cache. | | POST | / | This API creates a copy of an entire ServerlessCache at a specific moment in time. Available for Redis OSS and Serverless Memcached only. | | POST | / | Creates a copy of an entire cluster or replication group at a specific moment in time. This operation is valid for Redis OSS only. | | POST | / | For Redis OSS engine version 6.0 onwards: Creates a Redis OSS user. For more information, see Using Role Based Access Control (RBAC). | | POST | / | For Redis OSS engine version 6.0 onwards: Creates a Redis OSS user group. For more information, see Using Role Based Access Control (RBAC) | | POST | / | Decreases the number of node groups in a Global datastore | | POST | / | Dynamically decreases the number of replicas in a Redis OSS (cluster mode disabled) replication group or the number of replica nodes in one or more node groups (shards) of a Redis OSS (cluster mode enabled) replication group. This operation is performed with no cluster down time. | | POST | / | Deletes a previously provisioned cluster. DeleteCacheCluster deletes all associated cache nodes, node endpoints and the cluster itself. When you receive a successful response from this operation, Amazon ElastiCache immediately begins deleting the cluster; you cannot cancel or revert this operation. This operation is not valid for: Redis OSS (cluster mode enabled) clusters Redis OSS (cluster mode disabled) clusters A cluster that is the last read replica of a replication group A cluster that is the primary node of a replication group A node group (shard) that has Multi-AZ mode enabled A cluster from a Redis OSS (cluster mode enabled) replication group A cluster that is not in the available state | | POST | / | Deletes the specified cache parameter group. You cannot delete a cache parameter group if it is associated with any cache clusters. You cannot delete the default cache parameter groups in your account. | | POST | / | Deletes a cache security group. You cannot delete a cache security group if it is associated with any clusters. | | POST | / | Deletes a cache subnet group. You cannot delete a default cache subnet group or one that is associated with any clusters. | | POST | / | Deleting a Global datastore is a two-step process: First, you must DisassociateGlobalReplicationGroup to remove the secondary clusters in the Global datastore. Once the Global datastore contains only the primary cluster, you can use the DeleteGlobalReplicationGroup API to delete the Global datastore while retainining the primary cluster using RetainPrimaryReplicationGroup=true. Since the Global Datastore has only a primary cluster, you can delete the Global Datastore while retaining the primary by setting RetainPrimaryReplicationGroup=true. The primary cluster is never deleted when deleting a Global Datastore. It can only be deleted when it no longer is associated with any Global Datastore. When you receive a successful response from this operation, Amazon ElastiCache immediately begins deleting the selected resources; you cannot cancel or revert this operation. | | POST | / | Deletes an existing replication group. By default, this operation deletes the entire replication group, including the primary/primaries and all of the read replicas. If the replication group has only one primary, you can optionally delete only the read repli … (truncated)
