Using the OVHcloud API

If you are not familiar with using the OVHcloud API, please refer to our guide on Getting started with the OVHcloud API.

To upgrade or downgrade the service plan of your cluster, use the following API call:

PUT /cloud/project/{serviceName}/database/{engine}/{clusterId} 

body : {
    plan: <essential|business|production|enterprise|advanced>
}

If you downgrade to an Essential plan, your current flavor and/or number of nodes will be downgraded automatically if they exceed the limits of the Essential plan.
