Alibaba Cloud v3.81.0 published on Monday, Jun 23, 2025 by Pulumi
pulumi/pulumi-alicloud

    This data source provides availability zones that can be accessed by an Alibaba Cloud account within the region configured in the provider.

    NOTE: If one zone is sold out, it will not be exported.

    Example Usage

    import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as alicloud from "@pulumi/alicloud";

// Declare the data source
const zonesDs = alicloud.getZones({
    availableInstanceType: "ecs.n4.large",
    availableDiskCategory: "cloud_ssd",
});

    import pulumi
import pulumi_alicloud as alicloud

# Declare the data source
zones_ds = alicloud.get_zones(available_instance_type="ecs.n4.large",
    available_disk_category="cloud_ssd")

    package main

import (
	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi-alicloud/sdk/v3/go/alicloud"
	"github.com/pulumi/pulumi/sdk/v3/go/pulumi"
)

func main() {
	pulumi.Run(func(ctx *pulumi.Context) error {
		// Declare the data source
		_, err := alicloud.GetZones(ctx, &alicloud.GetZonesArgs{
			AvailableInstanceType: pulumi.StringRef("ecs.n4.large"),
			AvailableDiskCategory: pulumi.StringRef("cloud_ssd"),
		}, nil)
		if err != nil {
			return err
		}
		return nil
	})
}

    using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using Pulumi;
using AliCloud = Pulumi.AliCloud;

return await Deployment.RunAsync(() => 
{
    // Declare the data source
    var zonesDs = AliCloud.GetZones.Invoke(new()
    {
        AvailableInstanceType = "ecs.n4.large",

    Using getZones

    Two invocation forms are available. The direct form accepts plain arguments and either blocks until the result value is available, or returns a Promise-wrapped result. The output form accepts Input-wrapped arguments and returns an Output-wrapped result.
