}Update provisioned performance
Change IOPS or throughput without resizing or restarting the instance. At least one dimension is required. Poll the volume’s performance state until applied. Identical pending requests resume the same operation; a different request during an operation is rejected. Billing changes only after application. Selecting the included allowance removes paid extras.

}Authorizations
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.
curl -s -u "$KEY_ID:$SECRET" -d grant_type=client_credentials \
https://iam.basaltic.sh/v1/oauth/token
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
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.
255Path Parameters
Volume ID
Body
Independently provision total sustained, combined read/write performance. Omitted dimensions retain their current value (included allowance on create). SSD permits up to 8000 IOPS and 250 MiB/s; NVMe up to 12000 and 500 MiB/s. The minimum is the volume's included allowance; higher grandfathered allowances remain available free of charge. Throughput is whole MiB/s, except an exact fractional legacy allowance may be selected to remove the paid add-on. Increases require account quota, regional capacity, and healthy storage. Applied extras bill by elapsed duration, including while detached or stopped.
