CreateImageExportTask

GET /?Action=CreateImageExportTask
Description

Exports an Outscale machine image (OMI) to an Object Storage Unit (OSU) bucket.
This action enables you to copy an OMI between accounts in in different Regions. To copy an OMI in the same Region, you can also use the CopyImage method. For more information, see CopyImage.
The copy of the OMI belongs to you and is independent from the source OMI.

Note

You cannot export a shared or public OMI, as they do not belong to you. To do so, you must first copy it to your account. The copy then belongs to you and you can export it. For more information, see CopyImage.
