Calls SnapshotService

Get

Returns the specified Snapshot resource.
To get the list of available Snapshot resources, make a List request.

rpc Get (GetSnapshotRequest) returns (Snapshot)

GetSnapshotRequest

Field Description
snapshot_id string
Required. ID of the Snapshot resource to return. To get the snapshot ID, use a SnapshotService.List request. The maximum string length in characters is 50.

Snapshot

Field Description
id string
ID of the snapshot.
folder_id string
ID of the folder that the snapshot belongs to.
created_at google.protobuf.Timestamp
name string
Name of the snapshot. 1-63 characters long.
description string
Description of the snapshot. 0-256 characters long.
labels map<string,string>
Resource labels as key:value pairs. Maximum of 64 per resource.
storage_size int64
Size of the snapshot, specified in bytes.
disk_size int64
Size of the disk when the snapshot was created, specified in bytes.
product_ids[] string
License IDs that indicate which licenses are attached to this resource. License IDs are used to calculate additional charges for the use of the virtual machine.
The correct license ID is generated by the platform. IDs are inherited by new resources created from this resource.
If you know the license IDs, specify them when you create the image. For example, if you create a disk image using a third-party utility and load it into Object Storage, the license IDs will be lost. You can specify them in the yandex.cloud.compute.v1.ImageService.Create request.
status enum Status
Current status of the snapshot.
  • CREATING: Snapshot is being created.
  • READY: Snapshot is ready to use.
  • ERROR: Snapshot encountered a problem and cannot operate.
  • DELETING: Snapshot is being deleted.
source_disk_id string
ID of the source disk used to create this snapshot.

List

Retrieves the list of Snapshot resources in the specified folder.

rpc List (ListSnapshotsRequest) returns (ListSnapshotsResponse)

ListSnapshotsRequest

Field Description
folder_id string
Required. ID of the folder to list snapshots in. To get the folder ID, use a yandex.cloud.resourcemanager.v1.FolderService.List request. The maximum string length in characters is 50.
page_size int64
The maximum number of results per page to return. If the number of available results is larger than page_size, the service returns a ListSnapshotsResponse.next_page_token that can be used to get the next page of results in subsequent list requests. The maximum value is 1000.
page_token string
Page token. To get the next page of results, set page_token to the ListSnapshotsResponse.next_page_token returned by a previous list request. The maximum string length in characters is 100.
filter string
A filter expression that filters resources listed in the response. The expression must specify:
  1. The field name. Currently you can use filtering only on the Snapshot.name field.
  2. An = operator.
  3. The value in double quotes ("). Must be 3-63 characters long and match the regular expression [a-z]([-a-z0-9]{,61}[a-z0-9])?.
The maximum string length in characters is 1000.

ListSnapshotsResponse

Field Description
snapshots[] Snapshot
List of snapshots.
next_page_token string
This token allows you to get the next page of results for list requests. If the number of results is larger than ListSnapshotsRequest.page_size, use the next_page_token as the value for the ListSnapshotsRequest.page_token query parameter in the next list request. Each subsequent list request will have its own next_page_token to continue paging through the results.
