### root
| Method | Path | Description |
|--------|------|-------------|
| POST | / | Assign a registered instance to a layer.   You can assign registered on-premises instances to any layer type.   You can assign registered Amazon EC2 instances only to custom layers.   You cannot use this action with instances that were created with OpsWorks Stacks.    Required Permissions: To use this action, an Identity and Access Management (IAM) user must have a Manage permissions level for the stack or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information on user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Assigns one of the stack's registered Amazon EBS volumes to a specified instance. The volume must first be registered with the stack by calling RegisterVolume. After you register the volume, you must call UpdateVolume to specify a mount point before calling AssignVolume. For more information, see Resource Management.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Manage permissions level for the stack, or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information on user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Associates one of the stack's registered Elastic IP addresses with a specified instance. The address must first be registered with the stack by calling RegisterElasticIp. For more information, see Resource Management.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Manage permissions level for the stack, or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information on user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Attaches an Elastic Load Balancing load balancer to a specified layer. OpsWorks Stacks does not support Application Load Balancer. You can only use Classic Load Balancer with OpsWorks Stacks. For more information, see Elastic Load Balancing.  You must create the Elastic Load Balancing instance separately, by using the Elastic Load Balancing console, API, or CLI. For more information, see the Elastic Load Balancing Developer Guide.   Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Manage permissions level for the stack, or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information on user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Creates a clone of a specified stack. For more information, see Clone a Stack. By default, all parameters are set to the values used by the parent stack.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information about user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Creates an app for a specified stack. For more information, see Creating Apps.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Manage permissions level for the stack, or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information on user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Runs deployment or stack commands. For more information, see Deploying Apps and Run Stack Commands.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Deploy or Manage permissions level for the stack, or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information on user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Creates an instance in a specified stack. For more information, see Adding an Instance to a Layer.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Manage permissions level for the stack, or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information on user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Creates a layer. For more information, see How to Create a Layer.  You should use CreateLayer for noncustom layer types such as PHP App Server only if the stack does not have an existing layer of that type. A stack can have at most one instance of each noncustom layer; if you attempt to create a second instance, CreateLayer fails. A stack can have an arbitrary number of custom layers, so you can call CreateLayer as many times as you like for that layer type.   Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Manage permissions level for the stack, or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information on user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Creates a new stack. For more information, see Create a New Stack.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information about user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Creates a new user profile.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information about user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Deletes a specified app.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Manage permissions level for the stack, or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information on user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Deletes a specified instance, which terminates the associated Amazon EC2 instance. You must stop an instance before you can delete it. For more information, see Deleting Instances.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Manage permissions level for the stack, or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information on user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Deletes a specified layer. You must first stop and then delete all associated instances or unassign registered instances. For more information, see How to Delete a Layer.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Manage permissions level for the stack, or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information on user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Deletes a specified stack. You must first delete all instances, layers, and apps or deregister registered instances. For more information, see Shut Down a Stack.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Manage permissions level for the stack, or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information on user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Deletes a user profile.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information about user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Deregisters a specified Amazon ECS cluster from a stack. For more information, see  Resource Management.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Manage permissions level for the stack or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information on user permissions, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/opsworks/latest/userguide/opsworks-security-users.html. |
| POST | / | Deregisters a specified Elastic IP address. The address can be registered by another stack after it is deregistered. For more information, see Resource Management.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Manage permissions level for the stack, or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information on user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Deregister an instance from OpsWorks Stacks. The instance can be a registered instance (Amazon EC2 or on-premises) or an instance created with OpsWorks. This action removes the instance from the stack and returns it to your control.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Manage permissions level for the stack or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information on user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Deregisters an Amazon RDS instance.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Manage permissions level for the stack, or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information on user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Deregisters an Amazon EBS volume. The volume can then be registered by another stack. For more information, see Resource Management.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Manage permissions level for the stack, or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information on user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Describes the available OpsWorks Stacks agent versions. You must specify a stack ID or a configuration manager. DescribeAgentVersions returns a list of available agent versions for the specified stack or configuration manager. |
| POST | / | Requests a description of a specified set of apps.  This call accepts only one resource-identifying parameter.   Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Show, Deploy, or Manage permissions level for the stack, or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information about user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Describes the results of specified commands.  This call accepts only one resource-identifying parameter.   Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Show, Deploy, or Manage permissions level for the stack, or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information about user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Requests a description of a specified set of deployments.  This call accepts only one resource-identifying parameter.   Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Show, Deploy, or Manage permissions level for the stack, or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information about user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
| POST | / | Describes Amazon ECS clusters that are registered with a stack. If you specify only a stack ID, you can use the MaxResults and NextToken parameters to paginate the response. However, OpsWorks Stacks currently supports only one cluster per layer, so the result set has a maximum of one element.  Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Show, Deploy, or Manage permissions level for the stack or an attached policy that explicitly grants permission. For more information about user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. This call accepts only one resource-identifying parameter. |
| POST | / | Describes Elastic IP addresses.  This call accepts only one resource-identifying parameter.   Required Permissions: To use this action, an IAM user must have a Show, Deploy, or Manage permissions level for the stack, or an attached policy that explicitly grants permissions. For more information about user permissions, see Managing User Permissions. |
