LeaveSecurityGroup

Updated at:

Removes an ECS instance or an Elastic Network Interface (ENI) from a specified security group.

Operation description

Note

This API operation is deprecated. Call ModifyInstanceAttribute to add or remove an ECS instance from a security group, or call ModifyNetworkInterfaceAttribute to add or remove an Elastic Network Interface (ENI) from a security group.

Important Alibaba Cloud adjusted the validation rules for this API operation on July 8, 2024. When you remove an instance or network interface controller (NIC) that is not in the security group, the API operation returns the error code "InvalidSecurityGroupAssociation.NotFound" instead of a success response. Ensure that your application is compatible with this error code to avoid service interruptions.
  • You cannot remove an instance and an Elastic Network Interface (ENI) from a security group at the same time. Specifically, you cannot specify both the InstanceId and NetworkInterfaceId parameters.

  • Before you remove an instance from a security group, the instance must be in the Stopped or Running state.

  • An instance or Elastic Network Interface (ENI) must be added to at least one security group. If the instance or Elastic Network Interface (ENI) is added to only one security group, the removal request fails and returns an error.

  • If you remove an instance or network interface controller (NIC) that is not in the security group, the removal request fails and returns an error.

Test

RAM authorization

The table below describes the authorization required to call this API. You can define it in a Resource Access Management (RAM) policy. The table's columns are detailed below:

  • Action: The actions can be used in the Action element of RAM permission policy statements to grant permissions to perform the operation.

  • API: The API that you can call to perform the action.

  • Access level: The predefined level of access granted for each API. Valid values: create, list, get, update, and delete.

  • Resource type: The type of the resource that supports authorization to perform the action. It indicates if the action supports resource-level permission. The specified resource must be compatible with the action. Otherwise, the policy will be ineffective.

    • For APIs with resource-level permissions, required resource types are marked with an asterisk (*). Specify the corresponding Alibaba Cloud Resource Name (ARN) in the Resource element of the policy.

    • For APIs without resource-level permissions, it is shown as All Resources. Use an asterisk (*) in the Resource element of the policy.

  • Condition key: The condition keys defined by the service. The key allows for granular control, applying to either actions alone or actions associated with specific resources. In addition to service-specific condition keys, Alibaba Cloud provides a set of common condition keys applicable across all RAM-supported services.

  • Dependent action: The dependent actions required to run the action. To complete the action, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform all dependent actions.
