Return Values

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:

Key Returned Description
items
complex
 always
List of items
  archive_size_bytes
integer
 success
Size of the image tar.gz archive stored in Google Cloud Storage (in bytes).
  creation_timestamp
string
 success
Creation timestamp in RFC3339 text format.
  deprecated
complex
 success
The deprecation status associated with this image.
    deleted
string
 success
An optional RFC3339 timestamp on or after which the state of this resource is intended to change to DELETED. This is only informational and the status will not change unless the client explicitly changes it.
    deprecated
string
 success
An optional RFC3339 timestamp on or after which the state of this resource is intended to change to DEPRECATED. This is only informational and the status will not change unless the client explicitly changes it.
    obsolete
string
 success
An optional RFC3339 timestamp on or after which the state of this resource is intended to change to OBSOLETE. This is only informational and the status will not change unless the client explicitly changes it.
    replacement
string
 success
The URL of the suggested replacement for a deprecated resource.
The suggested replacement resource must be the same kind of resource as the deprecated resource.
    state
string
 success
The deprecation state of this resource. This can be DEPRECATED, OBSOLETE, or DELETED. Operations which create a new resource using a DEPRECATED resource will return successfully, but with a warning indicating the deprecated resource and recommending its replacement. Operations which use OBSOLETE or DELETED resources will be rejected and result in an error.
  description
string
 success
An optional description of this resource. Provide this property when you create the resource.
  disk_size_gb
integer
 success
Size of the image when restored onto a persistent disk (in GB).
  family
string
 success
The name of the image family to which this image belongs. You can create disks by specifying an image family instead of a specific image name. The image family always returns its latest image that is not deprecated. The name of the image family must comply with RFC1035.
  guest_os_features
complex
 success
A list of features to enable on the guest OS. Applicable for bootable images only. Currently, only one feature can be enabled, VIRTIO_SCSI_MULTIQUEUE, which allows each virtual CPU to have its own queue. For Windows images, you can only enable VIRTIO_SCSI_MULTIQUEUE on images with driver version 1.2.0.1621 or higher. Linux images with kernel versions 3.17 and higher will support VIRTIO_SCSI_MULTIQUEUE.
For new Windows images, the server might also populate this field with the value WINDOWS, to indicate that this is a Windows image.
This value is purely informational and does not enable or disable any features.
    type
string
 success
The type of supported feature. Currenty only VIRTIO_SCSI_MULTIQUEUE is supported. For newer Windows images, the server might also populate this property with the value WINDOWS to indicate that this is a Windows image. This value is purely informational and does not enable or disable any features.
  id
integer
 success
The unique identifier for the resource. This identifier is defined by the server.
  image_encryption_key
complex
 success
Encrypts the image using a customer-supplied encryption key.
After you encrypt an image with a customer-supplied key, you must provide the same key if you use the image later (e.g. to create a disk from the image) .
    raw_key
string
 success
Specifies a 256-bit customer-supplied encryption key, encoded in RFC 4648 base64 to either encrypt or decrypt this resource.
    sha256
string
 success
The RFC 4648 base64 encoded SHA-256 hash of the customer-supplied encryption key that protects this resource.
  licenses
list
 success
Any applicable license URI.
  name
string
 success
Name of the resource; provided by the client when the resource is created. The name must be 1-63 characters long, and comply with RFC1035. Specifically, the name must be 1-63 characters long and match the regular expression `[a-z]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])?` which means the first character must be a lowercase letter, and all following characters must be a dash, lowercase letter, or digit, except the last character, which cannot be a dash.
  raw_disk

 success
The parameters of the raw disk image.
    container_type

    sha1_checksum
string
 success
An optional SHA1 checksum of the disk image before unpackaging.
This is provided by the client when the disk image is created.
    source
string
 success
The full Google Cloud Storage URL where disk storage is stored You must provide either this property or the sourceDisk property but not both.
  source_disk
dictionary
 success
Refers to a gcompute_disk object You must provide either this property or the rawDisk.source property but not both to create an image.
  source_disk_encryption_key
complex
 success
The customer-supplied encryption key of the source disk. Required if the source disk is protected by a customer-supplied encryption key.
    raw_key
string
 success
Specifies a 256-bit customer-supplied encryption key, encoded in RFC 4648 base64 to either encrypt or decrypt this resource.
    sha256
string
 success
The RFC 4648 base64 encoded SHA-256 hash of the customer-supplied encryption key that protects this resource.
