Inputs

  • Image (required) — Choose the image from the searchable list or enter its ID.
  • Description — New image description, sent as description in the request body.
  • Type — Set to Snapshot (snapshot) to convert a backup image to a snapshot. Defaults to snapshot.
  • Additional Body Fields (JSON) — JSON object containing extra request body fields supported by the Hetzner Cloud API.
