ok, got it !
just add clone parameter for add function.
vm = vms_service.add(
types.Vm(
name=vm_name,
cluster=types.Cluster(
name=vm_cluster_name
),
stateless=False,
type=types.VmType('server'),
comment='cloned from template '+template_name+' version
'+str(template_version),
template=types.Template(
id=template_id
),
disk_attachments=template_disk_attachments,
),
clone=True,
)

Hi,
I want to create a cloned virtual machine based on a template with SDK API python and i
don't find the parameter to indicate the clone action for the disk
here is my code :

vm = vm_service.get()
if vm.status == types.VmStatus.DOWN:

# Close the connection to the server:
connection.close()
If the data_domain_name is the same as the template data domain, then this script seem to
create a vm but not with cloned disk.
If the data_domain_name is NOT the same as the template data domain, then this script
produce an error
ovirtsdk4.Error: Fault reason is "Operation Failed". Fault detail is
"[Cannot add VM. The selected Storage Domain does not contain the VM
Template.]". HTTP response code is 400.
So how to create a cloned virtual machine based on a template ?
I think i'm looking for the same parameter on the web ui, "Storage
Allocation" => Thin/Clone
