the thing is that:
- if you create a VM from a template using the "clone" provisioning the VM is
detached from the VM and is considered to be based on Blank
- this is why the VM dialog shows blank and the REST returns blank
- there has been a feature implemented (in 3.5 IIRC) which introduced the concept of
"original template" - so we remember also what template it was cloned from (both
name and ID)
- it seems this particular field is not exposed to REST API, only to UI
So, could you please open a bug for this to expose also this field to REST API?
Thank you.

Subject: Re: [ovirt-users] cloned vm template id
Here is that part:
template_id = '91e35bf5-b338-4115-ab63-309372a819ac'
#Ubuntu-14.04 template
template = api.templates.get(id=template_id)
template_disk_id = template.disks.list()[0].id
storage_id = 'UUID' #random storage id from storage list
cluster = api.clusters.get(name=vm_data['cluster_name'])
cpuparams = params.CPU(topology = params.CpuTopology(cores = 1,
sockets = vm_data['vm_cpus']))
disks = params.Disks(clone=True,
disk=[params.Disk(id=template_disk_id,
storage_domains=params.StorageDomains(storage_domain=[params.StorageDomain(id=storage_id)]))])
vmparams = params.VM(
id = vm_data['vm_id'],
name = vm_data['vm_name'],
memory = vm_data['vm_memory'] * MB,
cluster=cluster,
template=template,
cpu = cpuparams,
disks = disks,
custom_properties = custom_properties,
)
vmparams.set_type = 'server'
vm = api.vms.add(vmparams)
Every thing works fine, just showing blank template id instead of ubuntu
template id.
Thanks,
