Return Values

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:

Key

Description

resources

complex

List of resources

Returned: always

alternativeLocationId

string

Only applicable to STANDARD_HA tier which protects the instance against zonal failures by provisioning it across two zones.

If provided, it must be a different zone from the one provided in [locationId].

Returned: success

authEnabled

boolean

Optional. Indicates whether OSS Redis AUTH is enabled for the instance. If set to “true” AUTH is enabled on the instance.

Default value is “false” meaning AUTH is disabled.

Returned: success

authorizedNetwork

string

The full name of the Google Compute Engine network to which the instance is connected. If left unspecified, the default network will be used.

Returned: success

connectMode

string

The connection mode of the Redis instance.

Returned: success

createTime

string

The time the instance was created in RFC3339 UTC “Zulu” format, accurate to nanoseconds.

Returned: success

currentLocationId

string

The current zone where the Redis endpoint is placed.

For Basic Tier instances, this will always be the same as the [locationId] provided by the user at creation time. For Standard Tier instances, this can be either [locationId] or [alternativeLocationId] and can change after a failover event.

Returned: success

displayName

string

An arbitrary and optional user-provided name for the instance.

Returned: success

host

string

Hostname or IP address of the exposed Redis endpoint used by clients to connect to the service.

Returned: success

labels

dictionary

Resource labels to represent user provided metadata.

Returned: success

locationId

string

The zone where the instance will be provisioned. If not provided, the service will choose a zone for the instance. For STANDARD_HA tier, instances will be created across two zones for protection against zonal failures. If [alternativeLocationId] is also provided, it must be different from [locationId].

Returned: success

memorySizeGb

integer

Redis memory size in GiB.

Returned: success

name

string

The ID of the instance or a fully qualified identifier for the instance.

Returned: success

persistenceIamIdentity

string

Output only. Cloud IAM identity used by import / export operations to transfer data to/from Cloud Storage. Format is “serviceAccount:”.

The value may change over time for a given instance so should be checked before each import/export operation.

Returned: success

port

integer

The port number of the exposed Redis endpoint.

Returned: success

redisConfigs

dictionary

Redis configuration parameters, according to http://redis.io/topics/config.

Please check Memorystore documentation for the list of supported parameters: https://cloud.google.com/memorystore/docs/redis/reference/rest/v1/projects.locations.instances#Instance.FIELDS.redis_configs .

Returned: success

redisVersion

string

The version of Redis software. If not provided, latest supported version will be used. Currently, the supported values are: - REDIS_5_0 for Redis 5.0 compatibility - REDIS_4_0 for Redis 4.0 compatibility - REDIS_3_2 for Redis 3.2 compatibility .

Returned: success

region

string

The name of the Redis region of the instance.

Returned: success

reservedIpRange

string

The CIDR range of internal addresses that are reserved for this instance. If not provided, the service will choose an unused /29 block, for example, 10.0.0.0/29 or 192.168.0.0/29. Ranges must be unique and non-overlapping with existing subnets in an authorized network.

Returned: success

tier

string

The service tier of the instance. Must be one of these values: - BASIC: standalone instance - STANDARD_HA: highly available primary/replica instances .
