1. API Description

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

This API is used to apply for one or more Elastic IP Addresses (EIPs for short).

• An EIP is a static IP address that is dedicated for dynamic cloud computing. You can quickly re-map an EIP to another instance under your account to protect against instance failures.
• Your EIP is associated with your Tencent Cloud account rather than an instance. It remains associated with your Tencent Cloud account until you choose to explicitly release it or your account is in arrears for more than 24 hours.
• The maximum number of EIPs that can be applied for a Tencent Cloud account in each region is restricted. For more information, see EIP Product Introduction. You can get the quota information through the DescribeAddressQuota API.

A maximum of 10 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: vpc.ap-shanghai-fsi.tencentcloudapi.com
