Path Parameters
Header Parameters
  • For optimistic concurrency control. In the PUT or DELETE call for a resource, set the if-match parameter to the value of the etag from a previous GET or POST response for that resource. The resource will be updated or deleted only if the etag you provide matches the resource's current etag value.
  • Unique Oracle-assigned identifier for the request. Provide this request OCID if you need to contact Oracle about this request.
  • Minimum Length: 1
    Maximum Length: 64
    A token that uniquely identifies a request so it can be retried in case of a timeout or server error without risk of executing that same action again. Retry tokens expire after 24 hours, but can be invalidated before then due to conflicting operations (for example, if a resource has been deleted and purged from the system, then a retry of the original creation request may be rejected).
