1. API Description

Domain name for API request: cvm.intl.tencentcloudapi.com.

This API is used to create a new image with the system disk of an instance. The image can be used to create new instances.

A maximum of 10 requests can be initiated per second for this API.

We recommend you to use API Explorer
Try it
API Explorer provides a range of capabilities, including online call, signature authentication, SDK code generation, and API quick search. It enables you to view the request, response, and auto-generated examples.

2. Input Parameters

The following request parameter list only provides API request parameters and some common parameters. For the complete common parameter list, see Common Request Parameters.

Parameter Name Required Type Description
Action Yes String Common Params. The value used for this API: CreateImage.
Version Yes String Common Params. The value used for this API: 2017-03-12.
Region Yes String Common Params. For more information, please see the list of regions supported by the product. This API only supports: ap-bangkok, ap-beijing, ap-chengdu, ap-chongqing, ap-guangzhou, ap-hongkong, ap-jakarta, ap-nanjing, ap-seoul, ap-shanghai, ap-shanghai-fsi, ap-shenzhen-fsi, ap-singapore, ap-tokyo, eu-frankfurt, na-ashburn, na-siliconvalley, sa-saopaulo.
ImageName Yes String Image name.
InstanceId No String ID of the instance from which an image will be created. This parameter is required when using instance to create an image.
ImageDescription No String Image description.
ForcePoweroff No String Whether to perform forced power-off operation to create an image.
Valid values:
  • true: indicates that an image is created after forced power-off operation

  • false: indicates that an image is created in the power-on state


  • Default value: false.

    Creating an image in the power-on state may result in some unbacked-up data, affecting data security.
    Sysprep No String Whether to enable Sysprep when creating a Windows image.
    Valid values: TRUE and FALSE; default value: FALSE.

    Click here to learn more about Sysprep.
    DataDiskIds.N No Array of String IDs of data disks included in the image.
    SnapshotIds.N No Array of String Specified snapshot ID used to create an image. A system disk snapshot must be included. It cannot be passed together with InstanceId.
    DryRun No Boolean Success status of this request, without affecting the resources involved
    TagSpecification.N No Array of TagSpecification Tag description list. This parameter is used to bind a tag to a custom image.
    ImageFamily No String Image family

    3. Output Parameters

    Parameter Name Type Description
    ImageId String Image ID.
    Note: This field may return null, indicating that no valid value was found.
    RequestId String The unique request ID, generated by the server, will be returned for every request (if the request fails to reach the server for other reasons, the request will not obtain a RequestId). RequestId is required for locating a problem.

    4. Example

    Example1 Creating an image

    This example shows you how to create an image from the instance "ins-6pb6lrmy". If the instance is running, perform a soft shutdown. If the soft shutdown fails, the task will end (default semantics).

    Input Example

    POST / HTTP/1.1
    Host: cvm.intl.tencentcloudapi.com
    Content-Type: application/json
    X-TC-Action: CreateImage
    <Common request parameters>
    
    {
        "InstanceId": "ins-6pb6lrmy",
        "ImageName": "myImage"
    }

    Output Example

    {
        "Response": {
            "ImageId": "img-0yc6rie8",
            "RequestId": "71e69b56-32be-4412-ab45-49eded6a87be"
        }
    }

    5. Developer Resources

    SDK

    TencentCloud API 3.0 integrates SDKs that support various programming languages to make it easier for you to call APIs.

    Command Line Interface
