The URL to post to contains the enterprise ID and the template folder in the following format.
| Code Block |
|---|
/am/erepos/{enterpriseId}/templates/{templateFolder} |
The For template folder is the folder path on the NFS Repository, without the file name. So from our example with the following “href” and “path”:
| Code Block |
|---|
"href": "{base_api_url}/admin/enterprises/1/datacenterrepositories/1/virtualmachinetemplates/72/disks/74"
"path": "1/bundle/e05785d2-b49a-4034-9bb9-3440e1693589-4ba3b6e1-6f06-47d9-8703-9e9/4ba3b6e1-6f06-47d9-8703-9e9eae1c2a9b-snapshot-yVM2b8c91aa4-14b1-44a6-b27b-aa12c7ca3433-flat.vmdk" |
The “folder path” is as follows:template folder is the folder path on the NFS Repository, without the file name.
| Code Block |
|---|
1/bundle/e05785d2-b49a-4034-9bb9-3440e1693589-4ba3b6e1-6f06-47d9-8703-9e9 |
And So the format of the full URL to post to will be :template path containing the prefix “/am/erpos/{enterpriseId}/templates and the folder path
| Code Block |
|---|
/am/erepos/1/templates/1/bundle/e05785d2-b49a-4034-9bb9-3440e1693589-4ba3b6e1-6f06-47d9-8703-9e9 |
...
| Code Block |
|---|
/am/erepos/1/templates/1/bundle/abc%2520abc |
