1. API Description

Domain name for API request: cdb.tencentcloudapi.com.

This API is used to query the databases contained in a backup file. It has been disused. After the legacy version becomes capable of full backup, if you want to download logical backup files by table, you need to use this API. The new API (CreateBackup) can specify the table to be backed up when a logical backup file is created, which can be downloaded directly.

A maximum of 100 requests can be initiated per second for this API.

Note: This API supports Finance regions. If the common parameter Region is a Finance region, a domain name with the Finance region needs to be specified, for example: cdb.ap-shanghai-fsi.tencentcloudapi.com
