List Images

get

/20160918/images

List a subset of images available in the specified compartment, including platform images and custom images. The list of platform images includes the three most recently published versions of each major distribution. The list of images returned is ordered to first show the recent platform images, then all of the custom images.

Note: Platform images are refreshed regularly. When new images are released, older versions are replaced. The images remain available by OCID, but when the platform image is replaced, the image OCIDs are no longer returned as part of the platform image list.
