Moving a public IP address to a different folder

Written by

You can move cloud resources between folders within a single cloud.

To move a public IP address to a different folder:

  1. In the management console, go to the folder where the address is located.
  2. In the list of services, select Virtual Private Cloud.
  3. On the left-hand panel, select IP addresses.
  4. Click in the row of the address to be moved and select Move.
  5. Select the destination folder from the drop-down list.
  6. Click Move.

If you don't have the Yandex Cloud command line interface yet, install and initialize it.

The folder specified in the CLI profile is used by default. You can specify a different folder using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.

To move a public IP address to a different folder:

  1. View a description of the CLI move address command:

    yc vpc address move --help

  2. Get the name or ID of the address to move:

    yc vpc address list

    Result:

    +----------------------+------+---------------+----------+-------+
|          ID          | NAME |    ADDRESS    | RESERVED | USED  |
+----------------------+------+---------------+----------+-------+
| e2l50m7qo8gp35c6c58i |      | 84.252.137.20 | true     | false |
| e9b0qnmuh2cbglk265oi |      | 51.250.65.244 | true     | false |
| e9br252il3ceakc3rk94 |      | 51.250.68.195 | false    | true  |
+----------------------+------+---------------+----------+-------+

  3. Get a list of available folders:

    yc resource-manager folder list

    Result:

    +----------------------+------------------------+--------+--------+
|          ID          |          NAME          | LABELS | STATUS |
+----------------------+------------------------+--------+--------+
| b1cs8ie21pk10aurd2c3 | default                |        | ACTIVE |
| b1chgf288nvg541tgu73 | my-folder-1            |        | ACTIVE |
| b1cu6g9ielh690at5bm7 | my-folder-2            |        | ACTIVE |
+----------------------+------------------------+--------+--------+

  4. Move the address by specifying the name or ID of the address and destination folder:

    yc vpc address move <address_name_or_ID> \
  --destination-folder-name <name_of_destination_folder> \
  --destination-folder-id <ID_of_destination_folder>

    Use either the --destination-folder-name parameter or the --destination-folder-id parameter.

    If the address is not in the current folder (default folder), specify the source folder using the --folder-name or --folder-id option.

    Result:

     id: e9br252il3ceakc3rk94
 folder_id: b1chgf288nvg541tgu73
 created_at: "2022-10-10T05:38:43Z"
 external_ipv4_address:
   address: 51.250.68.195
   zone_id: ru-central1-a
   requirements: {}
 used: true
 type: EXTERNAL
 ip_version: IPV4

    For more information about the yc vpc address move command, see the CLI reference.

To move a public IP address to a different folder, use the move REST API method for the Address resource or the AddressService/Move gRPC API call.

Examples
