Field	Description
folder_id	string ID of the folder to create an image in. To get the folder ID, use a yandex.cloud.resourcemanager.v1.FolderService.List request. The length must be less than or equal to 50. This field is required.
name	string Name of the image. The value must match the regular expression: `\|[a-z]([-_a-z0-9]{0,61}[a-z0-9])?`.
description	string Description of the image. The length must be less than or equal to 256.
labels	object (map<string, string>) Resource labels as `key:value` pairs. Each map key must match the regular expression: `[a-z][-_./\\@0-9a-z]`. Each map value must match the regular expression: `[-_./\\@0-9a-z]`. The length of each map key must be between 1 and 63. The length of each map value must be less than or equal to 63. The number of elements must be less than or equal to 64.
family	string The name of the image family to which this image belongs. For more information, see Image family. To get an information about the most recent image from a family, use a ImageService.GetLatestByFamily request. The value must match the regular expression: `\|[a-z][-a-z0-9]{1,61}[a-z0-9]`.
min_disk_size	int64 Minimum size of the disk that will be created from this image. Specified in bytes. Should be more than the volume of source data. The value must be between 4194304 and 4398046511104.
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 this request. The length of each element must be less than or equal to 50.
image_id	string ID of the source image to create the new image from. The length must be less than or equal to 50. Includes only one of the fields `image_id`, `disk_id`, `snapshot_id`, `uri`. Only one field must by specified.
disk_id	string ID of the disk to create the image from. The length must be less than or equal to 50. Includes only one of the fields `image_id`, `disk_id`, `snapshot_id`, `uri`. Only one field must by specified.
snapshot_id	string ID of the snapshot to create the image from. The length must be less than or equal to 50. Includes only one of the fields `image_id`, `disk_id`, `snapshot_id`, `uri`. Only one field must by specified.
uri	string URI of the source image to create the new image from. Currently only supports links to images that are stored in Object Storage. Must be a valid pre-signed URL. Currently only supports Qcow2, VMDK, and RAW image formats. Includes only one of the fields `image_id`, `disk_id`, `snapshot_id`, `uri`. Only one field must by specified.
os	Os Operating system that is contained in the image. If not specified and you used the `image_id` or `disk_id` field to set the source, then the value can be inherited from the source resource.
pooled	bool When true, an image pool will be created for fast creation disks from the image.
hardware_generation	HardwareGeneration Specify the overrides to hardware_generation of a source disk, image or snapshot, or to the default values if the source does not define it.

Os

Field

Description

type

enum Type

Operating system type. The default is LINUX.

This field is used to correctly emulate a vCPU and calculate the cost of using an instance.

LINUX: Linux operating system.
WINDOWS: Windows operating system.

nvidia

Nvidia

Gpu type.
This field is used to correctly select a node with a host gpu that matches the gpu from here, in order to run the VM on it.

Nvidia

Field

Description

driver

string

Gpu driver version.

A set of features, specific to a particular Compute hardware generation.
They are not necessary supported by every host OS or distro, thus they are fixed to an image
and are applied to all instances created with it as their boot disk image.
These features significantly determine how the instance is created, thus cannot be changed after the fact.

Field

Description

legacy_features

LegacyHardwareFeatures

Includes only one of the fields legacy_features, generation2_features.

generation2_features

Generation2HardwareFeatures

Includes only one of the fields legacy_features, generation2_features.

LegacyHardwareFeatures

A first hardware generation, by default compatible with all legacy images.
Allows switching to PCI_TOPOLOGY_V2 and back.

Field

Description

pci_topology

enum PCITopology

PCI_TOPOLOGY_V1
PCI_TOPOLOGY_V2

Generation2HardwareFeatures

A second hardware generation, which by default assumes PCI_TOPOLOGY_V2
and UEFI boot (with UEFI related features).

Field	Description
Empty

operation.Operation

{
  "id": "string",
  "description": "string",
  "created_at": "google.protobuf.Timestamp",
  "created_by": "string",
  "modified_at": "google.protobuf.Timestamp",
  "done": "bool",
  "metadata": "google.protobuf.Any",
  // Includes only one of the fields `error`, `response`
  "error": "google.rpc.Status",
  "response": "google.protobuf.Any"
  // end of the list of possible fields
}

An Operation resource. For more information, see Operation.

Field	Description
id	string ID of the operation.
description	string Description of the operation. 0-256 characters long.
created_at	google.protobuf.Timestamp Creation timestamp.
created_by	string ID of the user or service account who initiated the operation.
modified_at	google.protobuf.Timestamp The time when the Operation resource was last modified.
done	bool If the value is `false`, it means the operation is still in progress. If `true`, the operation is completed, and either `error` or `response` is available.
metadata	google.protobuf.Any Service-specific metadata associated with the operation. It typically contains the ID of the target resource that the operation is performed on. Any method that returns a long-running operation should document the metadata type, if any.
error	google.rpc.Status The error result of the operation in case of failure or cancellation. Includes only one of the fields `error`, `response`. The operation result. If `done == false` and there was no failure detected, neither `error` nor `response` is set. If `done == false` and there was a failure detected, `error` is set. If `done == true`, exactly one of `error` or `response` is set.
response	google.protobuf.Any The normal response of the operation in case of success. If the original method returns no data on success, such as Delete, the response is google.protobuf.Empty. If the original method is the standard Create/Update, the response should be the target resource of the operation. Any method that returns a long-running operation should document the response type, if any. Includes only one of the fields `error`, `response`. The operation result. If `done == false` and there was no failure detected, neither `error` nor `response` is set. If `done == false` and there was a failure detected, `error` is set. If `done == true`, exactly one of `error` or `response` is set.
