Give the pool a shared public address
Requires the IAM action compute:UpdateInstancePool. See COMPUTE permissions for the full list, what each one covers, and an example policy.

Authorizations

Authorization
string
header
required

An OAuth 2.0 bearer token, sent as Authorization: Bearer <token>. This is the recommended way to authenticate.

Get one by exchanging a service account's access key pair at POST /v1/oauth/token with grant_type=client_credentials. It is the standard client-credentials grant, so any OAuth-aware library will obtain and refresh it for you.

Tokens last an hour by default. The same access key pair is separately your AWS SigV4 credential for the S3-compatible object endpoint, which speaks nothing else.

Headers

Idempotency-Key
string

Optional client-generated key that makes a create replay-safe. Retrying a request with the same key returns the original outcome verbatim instead of creating a duplicate resource. Reusing a key with a different request body is rejected (422); a request whose key is still being processed returns 409. Records are honored for 24 hours. Use a UUID or similarly unique token.

Maximum string length: 255

Path Parameters

pool_id
string<uuid>
required

Body

application/json
floating_ip
string
required

An account-scoped floating IP UUID or CRN (bare names are not accepted), currently attached to nothing. This binds it to the pool; it does not allocate one.

Example:

"3f9a1c7e-5b2d-4e8a-9c1f-6d3b7a2e5c9f"

Response

Attached; the address is returned with the members it now has.
