access_user	No	String	This parameter is mandatory when ssl_enable is set to true. This parameter is invalid when ssl_enable is set to false. The username must be 4 to 64 characters long and can contain only letters, digits, and hyphens (-).
password	No	String	This parameter is mandatory when ssl_enable is set to true. This parameter is invalid when ssl_enable is set to false. Instance password. The password must meet the following complexity requirements: Can contain 8 to 32 characters. Contain at least two of the following character types: Lowercase letters Uppercase letters Digits Special characters (`~!@#$%^&*()-_=+|[{}]:'",<.>/?)
vpc_id	Yes	String	VPC ID. To obtain it, log in to the VPC console and view the VPC ID on the VPC details page.
security_group_id	Yes	String	Security group which the instance belongs to. To obtain it, log in to the VPC console and view the security group ID on the security group details page.
subnet_id	Yes	String	Subnet information. To obtain it, log in to VPC console and click the target subnet on the Subnets page. You can view the network ID on the displayed page.
available_zones	Yes	Array of strings	ID of the AZ where instance brokers reside and which has available resources. Obtain the AZ ID by referring to Listing AZ Information. This parameter cannot be empty or null. When creating a Kafka instance, you can select either 1 AZ or at least 3 AZ. When specifying AZs for brokers, use commas (,) to separate multiple AZs.
product_id	Yes	String	Product ID. To create a Kafka instance, the following specifications are available: (product_id/specification/partition_num/storage_space) 00300-30308-0--0/100MB/300/600 00300-30310-0--0/300MB/900/1200 00300-30312-0--0/600MB/1800/2400 00300-30314-0--0/1200MB/1800/4800
maintain_begin	No	String	Time at which the maintenance time window starts. Format: HH:mm. The start time and end time of the maintenance time window must indicate the time segment of a supported maintenance time window. The start time must be set to 22:00, 02:00, 06:00, 10:00, 14:00, or 18:00. Parameters maintain_begin and maintain_end must be set in pairs. If parameter maintain_begin is left blank, parameter maintain_end is also left blank. In this case, the system automatically set the start time to 02:00.
maintain_end	No	String	Time at which the maintenance time window ends. Format: HH:mm. The start time and end time of the maintenance time window must indicate the time segment of a supported maintenance time window. The end time is four hours later than the start time. For example, if the start time is 22:00, the end time is 02:00. Parameters maintain_begin and maintain_end must be set in pairs. If parameter maintain_end is left blank, parameter maintain_start is also left blank. In this case, the system automatically set the end time to 06:00.
enable_publicip	No	Boolean	Indicates whether to enable public access. By default, public access is disabled. true: enable false: disable
public_bandwidth	No	Integer	Public network bandwidth. Unit: Mbit/s When specification is 100MB, the value must be a multiple of the number of brokers and fall in the range from 3 to 900. When specification is 300MB, the value must be a multiple of the number of brokers and fall in the range from 3 to 900. When specification is 600MB, the value must be a multiple of the number of brokers and fall in the range from 4 to 1200. When specification is 1200MB, the value must be a multiple of the number of brokers and fall in the range from 8 to 2400.
publicip_id	No	String	ID of the elastic IP address (EIP) bound to an instance. Use commas (,) to separate multiple EIP IDs. This parameter is mandatory if public access is enabled (that is, enable_publicip is set to true).
ssl_enable	No	Boolean	Indicates whether to enable SSL-encrypted access. This setting is fixed once the instance is created. true: enable false: disable
kafka_security_protocol	No	String	Security protocol to use after SASL is enabled. This parameter is mandatory if SASL authentication is enabled (that is, when ssl_enable is set to true). If this parameter is left blank, SASL_SSL authentication is enabled by default. This setting is fixed once the instance is created. SASL_SSL: Data is encrypted with SSL certificates for high-security transmission. SASL_PLAINTEXT: Data is transmitted in plaintext with username and password authentication. This protocol uses the SCRAM-SHA-512 mechanism to deliver better performance.
sasl_enabled_mechanisms	No	Array of strings	Authentication mechanism to use after SASL is enabled. This parameter is mandatory if SASL authentication is enabled (that is, when ssl_enable is set to true). If this parameter is left blank, PLAIN authentication is enabled by default. Select both or either of the following mechanisms for SASL authentication. Options: PLAIN: simple username and password verification. SCRAM-SHA-512: user credential verification, which is more secure than PLAIN.
retention_policy	No	String	Action to be taken when the memory usage reaches the disk capacity threshold. Options: produce_reject: New messages cannot be created. time_base: The earliest messages are deleted.
disk_encrypted_enable	No	Boolean	Indicates whether to enable disk encryption.
disk_encrypted_key	No	String	Disk encryption key. If disk encryption is not enabled, this parameter is left blank.
connector_enable	No	Boolean	Indicates whether to enable message dumping. By default, message dumping is disabled.
enable_auto_topic	No	Boolean	Indicates whether to enable automatic topic creation. true: enable false: disable If automatic topic creation is enabled, a topic will be automatically created with 3 partitions and 3 replicas when a message is produced to or consumed from a topic that does not exist. The default value is false.
storage_spec_code	Yes	String	Storage I/O specification. The value is dms.physical.storage.high or dms.physical.storage.ultra when the parameter specification is 100MB or 300MB. The value is dms.physical.storage.ultra when the parameter specification is 600MB or 1200MB. For details on how to select a disk type, see "Disk Types and Disk Performance" in Elastic Volume Service User Guide.
tags	No	Array of TagEntity objects	List of tags.

Table 3 TagEntity

key	No	String	Tag key. Cannot be left blank. Must be unique for the same instance. Can contain 1 to 128 characters. Can contain letters, digits, spaces, and special characters _.:=+-@ Cannot start or end with a space.
value	No	String	Value. Can contain 0 to 255 characters. Can contain letters, digits, spaces, and special characters _.:=+-@ Cannot start or end with a space.
