/v2/sizes gives back results which aren't in the UI

Posted on September 26, 2024

Hi Folks,

I’ve noticed that the sizes API gives back some slugs which do not appear in the UI.

curl -X GET -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $DO_TOKEN" \
    "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/sizes?per_page=200"

Here’s the results which I can’t find in the UI (made into a table for easy viewing).

description slug memory vcpus disk price_monthly available
Basic Intel s-1vcpu-1gb-intel 1024 1 25 7.0 TRUE
Basic Intel s-1vcpu-2gb-intel 2048 1 50 14.0 TRUE
Basic Intel s-2vcpu-2gb-intel 2048 2 60 21.0 TRUE
Basic Intel s-2vcpu-4gb-intel 4096 2 80 28.0 TRUE
Basic Intel s-4vcpu-8gb-intel 8192 4 160 56.0 TRUE

In terms of specs and pricing, they are the same as what is available in the ‘Basic -> Premium AMD’ tab, but according to the description and slug these are intel.

All of the other results I get from the API appear in the UI in their expected categories - so I’m a little bit lost on these particular ones.

Hoping someone might be able to clear this up.

:wave: Looks like those might be older, legacy plans. Looking at the Premium Intel tab on https://www.digitalocean.com/pricing/droplets#basic-droplets, the plans more-or-less match up, though it looks like the “current” plans have a slightly larger disk (and a slightly increased cost to match).
