Resource Changes

The topic provides information on operation, parameter and schema changes made in the Veeam Backup for AWS REST API 1.2-rev0.

Behavior Changes

The following behavior changes were introduced:

• The password request body parameter of the UserCreateSpec schema is not required if you specify the External value in the accountType parameter. This means that, if the user identity is received from the Identity Provider, you do not need to specify a password when creating a new user.
• The type of the hours request body parameter in the DailySchedule schema changed from boolean to integer($int32). This means that instead of specifying an array of true and false values, you must specify an array of hours (from 0 to 23) when a backup policy must run.

Collection Changes

The following changes in resource collections were made:

• The /policy resource collection that included both EC2 policy and RDS policy resources was depricated and replaced by the /rds/policies and /virtualMachines/policies collections.
• The ​/vmRestorePoints collection was replaced by the /virtualMachines/restorePoints collection.

For more information on new resource collections, see New Resources.
