Hi Shanil, Preview/Undo actions can be invoked from VM context. I.e.: /api/vms/{vm_id}/preview_snapshot /api/vms/{vm_id}/undo_snapshot These actions are supported only on versions > 3.4, in older versions, use 'restore' (which is 'preview + commit'): /api/vms/{vm_id}/snapshots/{snapshot_id}/restore To clone a VM from snapshot, POST to /api/vms : <vm> ... <snapshots> <snapshot id={snapshot_id}/> </snapshots> ... </vm> > > > > > > -- > > Regards > > Shanil > > > > Hi Shanil, > take a look here: > http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Single_Disk_Snapshot#REST-API > > Maybe Allon or other can add some info if needed. > > Doron > _______________________________________________ > Users mailing list > Users(a)ovirt.org > http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users >
