Hey,
I want to have a droplet ready to use with a custom setup but only use it X hours a month. Is it possible to keep it saved and only pay when in use?
Thank you

I tried this:
-
Create a droplet, configure it, then save a snapshot
-
Then, i deleted the droplet
-
I have now created a new droplet, same config but i can’t restore it from the snapshot.
Any suggestions?
