Create a new service

Creates a service with optional bindings to ip_addresses or ports. The id, created_at, updated_at, and source fields are generated server-side. Bindings are specified without service_id or network_id - these are assigned automatically.

Binding Validation Rules

  • Cross-host validation: All bindings must reference ports/interfaces that belong to the service's host. Bindings referencing entities from other hosts will be rejected.
  • Deduplication: Duplicate bindings in the same request are automatically deduplicated.
  • All-interfaces precedence: If a port binding with ip_address_id: null (all ip_addresses) is included, any specific-interface bindings for the same port are automatically removed.
  • Conflict detection: Interface bindings conflict with port bindings on the same interface. A port binding on all ip_addresses conflicts with any interface binding.

Update a service

Updates an existing service. All binding validation rules from service creation apply here as well. ## Binding Validation Rules - **Cross-host validation**: All bindings must reference ports/interfaces that belong to the service's host. Bindings referencing entities from other hosts will be rejected. - **Deduplication**: Duplicate bindings are automatically deduplicated. - **All-interfaces precedence**: If a port binding with `ip_address_id: null` (all ip_addresses) is included, any specific-interface bindings for the same port are automatically removed. - **Conflict detection**: Interface bindings conflict with port bindings on the same interface.
