Request creation procedure

  1. After logging in to the Portal, selecting "IaaS Portal" from the "Management" tab displays the "IaaS Dashboard" as below.
  2. Select the region you want to create the stack in.
  3. Select the project you want to create the stack in.
  4. Clicking "API Execution" in the menu on the left displays the "API Execution" window.
  5. Select "POST" from the HTTP methods.
  6. Select "orchestration" from the endpoints.
  7. Add "/stacks" to the end of the displayed URI.
  8. Input the JSON string in the request body, using the format below.
    {
    	"stack_name": "<stack name> ",
    	"template": "<template text value>",
    	"template_url": "<template file url >",
      "parameters": {
        "<param_name-n>":"<param_value-n>",
    	...
      }
    }

    *There are other options for the API, but they are not introduced here. For details, refer to the "API Reference - Application Platform Service".

    The following is an example of an actual input window. The content input in "template" is an escaped version of the content in "Sample system configuration - Example Heat template".

    When "Response": 201 is returned in the Response field, the creation request was successful.
