Dear Friends,
I am trying to find out VMs to Storage Container relations using Nutanix REST APIs but not able to get. I have tried both V2.0 and V3 APIs.
In 'vms/list' v3 API, we do get "disk_list" for each VM but I do not see these vDisks in 'vdisk' or virtual_disks APIs (v2).
Also there is no reference to Storage_Containers in 'vms/list' output so it is difficult for me to find the correlation.
Please help.

How to get VM to Storage Container relation using REST APIs?
Best answer by conradcorbett
With v2 API, in your request for /vms/, include_vm_disk_config=true. For example: https://PRISM_IP:9440/PrismGateway/services/rest/v2.0/vms/?include_vm_disk_config=true
This will return vm_disk_info with storage_container_uuid for each VM.
I think an alternative would be to do a GET /virtual_disks/. This will list all of the virtual disks on the cluster and provides the attached_vmname and storage_container_uuid for each virtual disk.
