Edit the Visual Builder Instance

You can edit your Visual Builder instance to scale the number of nodes in your instance, change the instance's network access, and to add (or update) a custom endpoint. You cannot rename an instance.

Note:

You cannot split a single instance into two parts (for example, into test and development parts). Instead, you must create separate instances for each part.

1. Open the Visual Builder Instance Details page of the instance you want to edit, and then click Edit.

   In the Edit Visual Builder Instance panel you can:

   • Scale the instance using the Nodes field. See Scale a Visual Builder Instance.
   • Configure how the instance is accessible on the network in the Choose network access pane.

     The pane contains options for setting the network access:

     • Default

       Select this option to allow all networks access to your instance, without restrictions. If you convert a private endpoint to a publicly-accessible instance, after you convert the instance you should confirm that the instance is available publicly, and that the instance can connect to your database.

       If you used a bastion service to access a private endpoint-enabled instance, remove any entries you added in the /etc/hosts file.

     • Secure access from allowed IPs and VCNs only

       Select this option if you want to limit access to specific IP addresses and VCNs. See Restrict Access to the Instance With an Allowlist.

     • Private endpoint access only

       Select this option to limit access to a specific VCN. Before converting a publicly accessible instance to a private endpoint, you will need to create and configure the VCN that will contain the private endpoint. See Set the Network Access For a Private Endpoint and Prerequisite Steps for Configuring a Private Endpoint.

       Note:

       The following restrictions apply when converting a publicly-accessible instance to an instance that uses a private endpoint:

       • You cannot convert an instance if its node count is greater than one.
       • You cannot convert a VB instance created in an IDCS domain if its home region is different from the currently selected region.

       You cannot combine changing an instance's network access with any other instance updates.

   • Click Show Advanced Options to display the Custom Endpoint pane to add or update a custom endpoint. The custom hostname you want to map to the instance must already be registered on a DNS provider and its SSL certificate stored as a secret in an OCI Vault. See Create and Configure a Custom Endpoint.
2. Click Save Changes to update the instance.
