Description Lucy Bopf 2017-03-02 01:41:23 UTC
This update adds the ability to download or upload Red Hat Virtualization images (for example, virtual machine images) using the Red Hat Virtualization API.

Add information in the Admin Guide that this is possible via REST API. Assignee to confirm whether changes are visible in places other than the REST API.

Comment 1 Lucy Bopf 2017-03-02 01:44:33 UTC
Assigning to Emma for review.

Comment 2 Emma Heftman 2017-03-02 10:26:27 UTC
Hi Daniel, could you tell me whether this feature is available via UI or only via the API?

Image upload is available via the UI and the API. Image download is available only via the API.

I'm increasing the estimation to reflect the fact that this is both API and UI.

Daniel, when you say
>> It could be nice to add full examples for upload [1] and download [2] images via the API (maybe at an appendix?).

Were you referring to an Appendix of the API or of the Admin Guide?

The REST-API guide.
