ModifySnapshotAttribute

POST

Modify the attributes of a specified snapshot.

Wire call

Converge Cloud is RPC over HTTP. There is one path — / — and the action travels in the X-TC-Action header. The /cbs/ModifySnapshotAttribute path used in the OpenAPI document is a documentation convenience so each action is addressable; it is not a route on the server.

curl
curl -sS https://cbs.api3.convergecloud.com/ \
  -H 'Authorization: TC3-HMAC-SHA256 Credential=<SecretId>/<YYYY-MM-DD>/cbs/tc3_request, SignedHeaders=content-type;host;x-tc-action, Signature=<sig>' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8' \
  -H 'Host: cbs.api3.convergecloud.com' \
  -H 'X-TC-Action: ModifySnapshotAttribute' \
  -H 'X-TC-Version: 2017-03-12' \

Response

Fields are returned inside the Response envelope. Converge Cloud answers HTTP 200 for errors as well as successes, so read Response.Error rather than the status code — and test for the presence of that object, because Code is occasionally the empty string.
