Create instance configuration

the Instance Configuration

id string

Unique identifier for the instance configuration

name string required

Display name for the instance configuration.

config_version integer

If the IC is configuration controlled, this field is the version either being read back (reads return the latest IC unless specified by the 'config_version' URL param), or the version to update. Cannot be used in creates. For unversioned IC reads it is left empty.

description string

Optional description for the instance configuration

instance_type enum

The type of instance. For instance configurations where the type is specified in the 'id', the default value of 'instance_type' will be automatically inferred.

Values: elasticsearch kibana apm integrations_server appsearch enterprise_search

node_types [] string

Node types (master, data) for the instance. For instance configurations where the type (and tier) is specified in the 'id', the default value of 'node_types' will be automatically inferred.

discrete_sizes {} DiscreteSizes required

Instance sizes that are supported by the Elasticsearch instance, Kibana instance, or APM Server configuration.

metadata object

Optional arbitrary metadata to associate with this template.

cpu_multiplier number

Settings for the instance CPU multiplier

allowed_zones [] string

The zones this instance configuration may exist in. Leaving out this parameter or specifying an empty list implies all zones are allowed. Normally not needed, but can be useful for exceptional infrastructure constraints.

max_zones integer

The maximum number of availability zones in which this instance configuration has allocators. This field will be missing unless explicitly requested with the show_max_zones parameter.
