Description Martin Kourim 2017-07-04 15:37:25 UTC
Description of problem:

The REST API reference doesn't contain complete info about what attributes are required and what attributes are available for each provider type when creating new provider using REST API.

Attributes common to all provider types seem to be documented, but e.g. the way how to specify region when adding cloud provider is not.

Comment 2 Andrew Dahms 2018-10-08 23:52:06 UTC
Thank you for raising this bug.

We have evaluated this request, and while we recognize that it is a valid request for the documentation, we do not expect this to be implemented in the product in the foreseeable future. We are therefore closing this out as WONTFIX. 

If you have any concerns about this, please feel free to contact Andrew Dahms.
