Function

This API is used to query images using search criteria and to display the images in a list.

URI

GET /v2/cloudimages{?__isregistered,__imagetype,__whole_image,protected,visibility,owner,id,status,name,container_format,disk_format,min_ram,min_disk,__os_bit,__platform,marker,limit,sort_key,sort_dir,__os_type,tag,member_status,__support_kvm,__support_xen,__support_largememory,__support_diskintensive,__support_highperformance,__support_xen_gpu_type,__support_kvm_gpu_type,__support_xen_hana,__support_kvm_infiniband,virtual_env_type,created_at,updated_at}

**Table 1** Parameter description
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
__isregistered	No	String	Specifies whether the image is available. The value can be true. The value is true for all extension APIs by default. Common users can query only the images for which the value of this parameter is true.
__imagetype	No	String	Specifies the image type. The following types are supported: Public image: The value is gold. Private image: The value is private. Shared image: The value is shared. NOTE: The __imagetype of images you share with other tenants or those other tenants share with you and you have accepted is shared. You can use field owner to distinguish the two types of shared images. You can use member_status to filter out shared images you have accepted.
__whole_image	No	Boolean	Specifies whether the image is a full-ECS image. The value can be true or false.
__system__cmkid	No	String	Specifies the ID of the key used to encrypt the image. You can obtain the ID from the IMS console or by calling the Querying Image Details (Native OpenStack API) API.
protected	No	Boolean	Specifies whether the image is protected. The value can be true or false. Set it to true when you query public images. This parameter is optional when you query private images.
visibility	No	String	Specifies whether the image is available to other tenants. Available values include: public: public image private: private image shared: shared image
owner	No	String	Specifies the tenant to which the image belongs.
id	No	String	Specifies the image ID.
status	No	String	Specifies the image status. The value can be one of the following: queued: indicates that the image metadata has already been created, and it is ready for the image file to upload. saving: indicates that the image file is being uploaded to the backend storage. deleted: indicates that the image has been deleted. killed: indicates that an error occurs on the image uploading. active: indicates that the image is available for use.
name	No	String	Specifies the image name. Exact matching is used. For detailed description, see Image Attributes.
container_format	No	String	Specifies the container type. The value is bare.
disk_format	No	String	Specifies the image format. The value can be zvhd2, vhd, zvhd, raw, iso, or qcow2. The default value is zvhd2 for a non-ISO image.
min_ram	No	Integer	Specifies the minimum memory size (MB) required for running the image. The parameter value depends on the ECS specifications. Generally, the value is 0.
min_disk	No	Integer	Specifies the minimum disk space (GB) required for running the image. The value ranges from 40 GB to 255 GB.

marker	No	String	Specifies the start number from which images are queried. The value is the image ID.
limit	No	Integer	Specifies the number of images that will be returned. The value is an integer and is 500 by default.
sort_key	No	String	Specifies the field for sorting the query results. The value can be an attribute of the image: name, container_format, disk_format, status, id, size, or created_at. The default value is created_at.
sort_dir	No	String	Specifies whether the query results are sorted in ascending or descending order. Its value can be desc (default) or asc. This parameter is used together with parameter sort_key. The default value is desc.
__os_type	No	String	Specifies the image OS type. Available values include: Linux Windows Other
tag	No	String	Specifies a tag added to an image. Tags can be used as a filter to query images. NOTE: The tagging function has been upgraded. If the tags added before the function upgrade are in the format of "Key.Value", query tags using "Key=Value". For example, an existing tag is a.b. After the tag function upgrade, query the tag using "tag=a=b".
member_status	No	String	Specifies the member status. The value can be accepted, rejected, or pending. accepted: indicates that the shared image is accepted. rejected indicates that the image shared by others is rejected. pending indicates that the image shared by others needs to be confirmed. To use this parameter, set visibility to shared during the query.
