Tool: list_configs
List instance configs in a given project. * Response may include next_page_token to fetch additional configs using list_configs tool with page_token set.
The following sample demonstrate how to use curl
to invoke the list_configs
MCP tool.
| Curl Request |
|---|
curl --location 'https://spanner.googleapis.com/mcp' \ --header 'content-type: application/json' \ --header 'accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \ --data '{ "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "list_configs", "arguments": { // provide these details according to the tool' s MCP specification } } , "jsonrpc" : "2.0" , "id" : 1 } ' |
Input Schema
The request for ListInstanceConfigs
.

{ "parent" : string , "pageSize" : integer , "pageToken" : string } |
| Fields | |
|---|---|
parent
|
Required. The name of the project for which a list of supported instance configurations is requested. Values are of the form |
pageSize
|
Number of instance configurations to be returned in the response. If 0 or less, defaults to the server's maximum allowed page size. |

InstanceConfig
| JSON representation |

{ "name" : string , "displayName" : string , "configType" : enum ( |
name
string
A unique identifier for the instance configuration. Values are of the form projects/<project>/instanceConfigs/[a-z][-a-z0-9]*
.
User instance configuration must start with custom-
.
displayName
string
The name of this instance configuration as it appears in UIs.
configType
enum (
Type
)
Output only. Whether this instance configuration is a Google-managed or user-managed configuration.
replicas[]
object (
ReplicaInfo
)
The geographic placement of nodes in this instance configuration and their replication properties.
To create user-managed configurations, input replicas
must include all replicas in replicas
of the base_config
and include one or more replicas in the optional_replicas
of the base_config
.
optionalReplicas[]
object (
ReplicaInfo
)
Output only. The available optional replicas to choose from for user-managed configurations. Populated for Google-managed configurations.
baseConfig
string
Base configuration name, e.g. projects/ base_config
must refer to a configuration of type GOOGLE_MANAGED
in the same project as this configuration.
labels
map (key: string, value: string)
Cloud Labels are a flexible and lightweight mechanism for organizing cloud resources into groups that reflect a customer's organizational needs and deployment strategies. Cloud Labels can be used to filter collections of resources. They can be used to control how resource metrics are aggregated. And they can be used as arguments to policy management rules (e.g. route, firewall, load balancing, etc.).
- Label keys must be between 1 and 63 characters long and must conform to the following regular expression:
[a-z][a-z0-9_-]{0,62}. - Label values must be between 0 and 63 characters long and must conform to the regular expression
[a-z0-9_-]{0,63}. - No more than 64 labels can be associated with a given resource.
See https://goo.gl/xmQnxf for more information on and examples of labels.
If you plan to use labels in your own code, please note that additional characters may be allowed in the future. Therefore, you are advised to use an internal label representation, such as JSON, which doesn't rely upon specific characters being disallowed. For example, representing labels as the string: name + "_" + value would prove problematic if we were to allow "_" in a future release.
An object containing a list of "key": value
pairs. Example: { "name": "wrench", "mass": "1.3kg", "count": "3" }
.
etag
string
etag is used for optimistic concurrency control as a way to help prevent simultaneous updates of a instance configuration from overwriting each other. It is strongly suggested that systems make use of the etag in the read-modify-write cycle to perform instance configuration updates in order to avoid race conditions: An etag is returned in the response which contains instance configurations, and systems are expected to put that etag in the request to update instance configuration to ensure that their change is applied to the same version of the instance configuration. If no etag is provided in the call to update the instance configuration, then the existing instance configuration is overwritten blindly.
leaderOptions[]
string
Allowed values of the "default_leader" schema option for databases in instances that use this instance configuration.
reconciling
boolean
Output only. If true, the instance configuration is being created or updated. If false, there are no ongoing operations for the instance configuration.
state
enum (
State
)
Output only. The current instance configuration state. Applicable only for USER_MANAGED
configurations.
freeInstanceAvailability
enum (
FreeInstanceAvailability
)
Output only. Describes whether free instances are available to be created in this instance configuration.
quorumType
enum (
QuorumType
)
Output only. The QuorumType
of the instance configuration.
storageLimitPerProcessingUnit
string ( int64
format)
Output only. The storage limit in bytes per processing unit.
