ExportImage

/20160918/images/{image_id}/actions/export
Export the specified image to the Object Storage service. You can use the Object Storage URL, or the namespace, bucket name, and object name when specifying the location to export to. To perform an image export, you need write access to the Object Storage bucket for the image.OCI - Oracle Cloud Infrastructure file with a QCOW2 image and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure metadata (.oci). Use this format to export a custom image that you want to import into other tenancies or regions. QCOW2 - QEMU Copy On Write (.qcow2) VDI - Virtual Disk Image (.vdi) for Oracle VM VirtualBox VHD - Virtual Hard Disk (.vhd) for Hyper-V VMDK - Virtual Machine Disk (.vmdk)
The exportFormat parameter specifies the format to export the image to. The default value is OCI. The following image formats are available:
Request
Supported Media Types
- application/json
Path Parameters
-
imageId(required): string
The OCID of the image.
Header Parameters
-
if-match: string
For optimistic concurrency control. In the PUT or DELETE call for a resource, set the if-match parameter to the value of the etag from a previous GET or POST response for that resource. The resource will be updated or deleted only if the etag you provide matches the resource's current etag value.
-
opc-retry-token: string
Minimum Length:
1
Maximum Length:64
A token that uniquely identifies a request so it can be retried in case of a timeout or server error without risk of executing that same action again. Retry tokens expire after 24 hours, but can be invalidated before then due to conflicting operations (for example, if a resource has been deleted and purged from the system, then a retry of the original creation request may be rejected).
Details for the image export.

Discriminator:
destinationType
The destination details for the image export. Set destinationType to objectStorageTuple and use ExportImageViaObjectStorageTupleDetails when specifying the namespace, bucket name, and object name.
