Find available regions (Go)

Gets a list of available regions for database creation.

The clients only return regions that support vector databases. To return other regions, use a direct HTTP request with the region-type query parameter.

You need an application token with permission to create and configure databases, such as the Organization Administrator role.

For more information, see Get endpoint and token.

Result

Returns a slice of astra.Region structs that contain information about the available regions.

Parameters

Use the FindAvailableRegions method, which belongs to the AstraAdmin type.

)

func main() {
	ctx := context.Background()

	client := astra.NewClient(
		options.API().SetToken("APPLICATION_TOKEN"),
	)

	admin, err := client.Admin()

	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}

	regions, err := admin.FindAvailableRegions(ctx)
