Updating a storage

1. Authenticate to the cloud platform via the Python shell.

   The following variables should be available now:

   >>> base_url  # the base URL of the API
   'https://eu2-cloud.acronis.com/api/2'
   >>> auth  # the 'Authorization' header value with the access token
   {'Authorization': 'Bearer eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsImtpZCI6ImMwMD...'}
   >>> tenant_id  # the UUID of the tenant to which the token provides access
   'ede9f834-70b3-476c-83d9-736f9f8c7dae'
   

2. Assign the infra_id variable the UUID of an infrastructure component created via the API or an infrastructure component found in location’s infrastructure components:

   >>> infra_id = created_infra_id
   >>> infra_id
   'f79546d7-d051-4e19-96f3-4cc68c2c5575'
   

3. Fetch the revision number of the storage as described in the chapters above. The following variable should be available now:

   >>> version
   1
   

4. Define a variable named infra_data, and then assign the storage to update to this variable:

   >>> infra_data = {
   ...     "url": "Amazon S3 Storage",
   ...     "version": version
   ... }
   

   Name	Value type	Required	Description
   url	string	No	The storage URL. See storage url formatting rules
   version	number	Yes	Revision number.

5. Convert the infra_data object to a JSON text:

   >>> infra_data = json.dumps(infra_data, indent=4)
   

6. Send a PUT request with the JSON text to the /infra/{infra_id} endpoint:

   >>> response = requests.put(
   ...     f'{base_url}/infra/{infra_id}',
   ...     headers={'Content-Type': 'application/json', **auth},
   ...     data=infra_data,
   ... )
   

7. Check the status code of the response:

   >>> response.status_code
   200
   

   Status code 200 means that the storage has been updated.

   A different status code means that an error has occurred. For the details, refer to “Status and error codes”.

   Also, the response body contains the updated storage formatted as a JSON text. When converted to an object, it will look as follows:

   >>> pprint.pprint(response.json())
   {'backend_type': None,
    'capabilities': ['files_cloud'],
    'id': 'f79546d7-d051-4e19-96f3-4cc68c2c5575',
    'location_id': 'afac0e4d-9deb-4201-9df3-e124dd7d9955',
    'name': 'Amazon S3 Storage',
    'owner_tenant_id': 'e5afb5e8-84b6-415b-969d-bc10d19f3301',
    'platform_owned': False,
    'readonly': False,
    'url': 'amazon+s3://s3.amazonaws.com/my-bucket-name',
    'version': 2}
