Delete a snapshot.

DELETE
/v1/projects/{projectId}/compute/snapshots/{snapshotId}
Code sample: Shell / cURL
curl --request DELETE \
--url https://stratum.example.com/v1/projects/example/compute/snapshots/example \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>'

Returns 202 Accepted; the snapshot transitions to deleting and the worker drives the driver-side delete.

sizeBytes
required

Logical size — equal to the source volume’s size at snapshot time.

actualBytes

Physical bytes consumed in the thin pool. CoW means this grows over time as the source diverges. Populated by the driver after the snapshot completes.

quiesced

True when the snapshot was taken after a successful filesystem quiesce via the guest agent. integration; v1 best-effort.

boolean
tags

AWS-shape resource tags. Freeform UTF-8 keys (1-128 bytes, no leading/trailing whitespace) mapped to freeform UTF-8 values (0-256 bytes). Max 50 tags per resource. Reserved prefixes (stratum.dev/, stratum.platform_health., stratum:, aws:) return 400 RESERVED_NAMESPACE on customer input. PATCH replaces the whole map..

issues

The findings of a rejected IAM policy document (custom and resource policies).

Array<object>

One finding of a rejected IAM policy document. A rejection lists every finding, so the author fixes the document in one round trip.

object
code
required

The finding, e.g. INVALID_DOCUMENT, UNKNOWN_ACTION, ACTION_NOT_APPLICABLE.

string
statement

Index of the statement at fault; -1 for the document as a whole.

integer

detail
required
string
action

The offending action, where one is at fault (ACTION_NOT_APPLICABLE).

string
errors

Field errors, for codes that carry them: each problem at its field (see FieldError). Documented on the responses that set it, e.g. approveNodeJoin’s INVALID_INPUT and JOIN_APPROVAL_REFUSED. Absent otherwise.

Array<object>

One field’s problem, the stage-2 installer API’s shape. field is the field’s path, message what is wrong with it.

object
field
required

The field’s path, e.g. links[0].interface, disks[1].confirm, mgmt.address or role; empty for the whole request.

string
message
required
string
details

Structured facts about the refusal, for codes that carry them. The shape is fixed per code and documented on the response that answers it, e.g. IMAGE_POOL_MISMATCH (see ImagePoolMismatchDetails) and IMAGE_IN_USE. Absent for codes that carry none.
