Scale database
Change the plan, storage, high availability, or read replica count of a running database.
- Plan — the new plan must be the same engine. Its included storage sets a floor: storage never shrinks below the new tier’s allotment.
- Storage —
storage_gbcan only grow. Omit (or0) to keep the current size. - High availability — set
set_ha: trueand put the desired state inhas_ha. Whenset_haisfalseor omitted, HA is unchanged. - Read replicas —
replica_countis always applied: pass your current count when you are not changing it. PostgreSQL only; Valkey rejects a count above 0.

}Authorizations
API key for authentication. Each key is bound to a specific account.
Path Parameters
Database ID (UUID) or short id (the database_id field, e.g. a1b2c3d4)
Body
application/json
New plan ID (same engine). Omit or 0 to keep the current plan.
New storage size in GB. Grows only — never below the plan's included allotment. Omit or 0 to keep the current size.
Set to true to apply the has_ha value. When false or omitted, high availability is unchanged.
Desired high availability state. Only applied when set_ha is true.
Desired read replica count. Always applied — pass your current count when not changing it. PostgreSQL only.
