Hello All,

I'm trying to create VM backups through the REST API using curl. My understanding of this flow is to create a snapshot, clone the snapshot, then export the clone machine.

I've got the snapshot part working:

curl -v --insecure -u "admin@internal:<mypass>" -H "Content-type: application/xml" -X POST https://<myserver>/api/vms/e7d53832-b1ba-4f6e-8218-6116a0b4ea53/snapshots -d '
<snapshot>
   <vm id="e7d53832-b1ba-4f6e-8218-6116a0b4ea53"/>
   <description>TEST_SNAPSHOT</description>
   <disks>
      <disk id="057c80e5-701f-4dcf-a86d-a89672ff606a"/>
   </disks>
</snapshot>'

However, I can't figure out how to get the clone portion working. I've found a reference to it, but am unable to make it work:

> To clone a VM from snapshot, POST to /api/vms :
> <vm>
>   ...
>   <snapshots>
>     <snapshot id={snapshot_id}/>
>   </snapshots>
>   ...
> </vm>

So the question is, how do you clone a snapshot with the REST API? Also, is there a complete listing anywhere of all features/action supported by the REST API?
