Is the request to allow an image upload via HTTP over horizon? It should be noted that glance v2 does not support image upload via URL anymore and as glance v1 is deprecated as of Newton, it might not be advised to configure this. There does appear to be a horizon configuration[1] around this but I am unclear how the interaction works around glance v1/v2. The setting was added in a change[2] that seem to describe issues around functionality changes between v1/v2 where things not supported might be disabled. The docs are unclear around this option as they reference v2 but say it should be set to false for glance v2 unless some other configuration/policy exists.

I should also mention that we are removing Glance Registry and Glance API v1 in Ocata, for some reasons, related to container deployment. Which means this feature can't be supported.
Quoting Flavio Percoco, glance-core: "The real reason this shouldn't be done is that glance's v1 is deprecated and Glance V2 should be used instead. The latter doesn't have support for copy-from. This may/may not be added in the future but till then, we shouldn't be promoting this feature nor adding support for it anywhere." This feature can't be supported as it's not in our roadmap. I'm closing this bugzilla.
