#502 IaaS --> Compute Service REST API via Postman

So again, I first need to authenticate, before I can execute any REST requests of import.



curl -i -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/oracle-compute-v3+json" -d '{"user":"/Compute-YourIdentityDomain/YourUser","password":"YourPwd"}' https://YourRESTEndpoint/authenticate/

Here is the request/response in Postman -

We are interested in the X-Oracle-Compute-Call-Id

X-Oracle-Compute-Call-Id →1605106c8e1eb8d2129191bd53539248a18d0b


Now I use this in the subsequent request(s)

Here I list the Instances -

https://YourRESTEndpoint/instance/Compute-YourIdentityDomain/YourUser/

Get the image list - this will return the image I cloned in a previous post.
