I want to attach and detach portable storage from Virtual server using Rest API. I didn't find any API references related to attach and detach from portable storage.

Try to use the following examples:

Attach Portable storage

Method POST

https://username:apiKey@api.softlayer.com/rest/v3.1/SoftLayer_Virtual_Guest/[#Virtual_GuestID]/attachDiskImage

Body

 {
"parameters":[ 
         [#Image_Id]
]}

Detach Portable storage

Method POST

https://username:apiKey@api.softlayer.com/rest/v3.1/SoftLayer_Virtual_Guest/[#Virtual_GuestID]/detachDiskImage

Body

 {
"parameters":[ 
         [#Image_Id]
]}

Note: Keep in mind that you have to change the [#Virtual_GuestId] and [#Image_Id] according to the selected datacenter.

  • Thank you for your reply. I tried the API reference provided by you. The API provided is related to Block volumes, but I require the API related to portable storage attach and detach. Please provide the same. I even tried editing the API provided by you and used it for Portable storage ID. I am getting the below-mentioned error. {"error":"Please provide a valid SoftLayer_Network_Storage object to allow access.","code":"SoftLayer_Exception_MissingParameter"}" Body : { "parameters":[{ "id": 99584837 }]} – john cruise Jun 20 '19 at 12:22
  • right, these examples are to attach and dettach block storage, I need to upgrade my response – Daniel Cabero Jun 20 '19 at 14:00
