where are size slugs for api?

I want to programmatically upgrade my redis managed db from a size 'db-s-1vcpu-1gb' to one with 8gb, and the slug doesn't exist anywhere in your documentation. The pricing page has slugs like '4-8-175' but those don't work.

Hi Dustin Dannenhauer, thanks for letting us know. We took down the erroneous slugs shortly after your feedback. The current best way to check for size slugs is to install our CLI tool, doctl
 and then use this command to retrieve a list of slugs for your engine: 
https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/doctl/reference/databases/options/slugs/
Unfortunately, the CLI won't return slugs for Redis/Caching because that engine has reached its End-of-Life, and we are encouraging Redis/Caching users to migrate to Valkey. But you should be able to use that command to return slugs for any other available database engines in the future.
Let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks.
