Deleting an Image Member

Scenario

Image sharing can be stopped if you do not want to share your images any more.

The token obtained from IAM is valid for only 24 hours. If you want to use a token for authentication, you can cache it to avoid frequently calling the IAM API.

Involved APIs

If you use a token for authentication, you must obtain the token and add X-Auth-Token to the request header of the IMS API when making an API call.

• IAM API used to obtain the token

  URI format: POST https://IAM endpoint/v3/auth/tokens

• IMS API used to delete an image member (Native OpenStack API)

  URI format: DELETE https://IMS endpoint/v2/images/Image ID/members/Member ID

Procedure

1. Obtain the token.
2. Send DELETE https://IMS endpoint/v2/images/Image ID/members/Member ID. Member ID indicates the project ID of the image recipient.
3. Add X-Auth-Token to the request header.

   If the request is successful, status code 204 is returned.
