How to create an Image that works with API to create a new Droplet

Posted on March 26, 2018

I created a Snapshot of a Droplet thinking that it would be the Image I can use in the API to create a new Droplet, but this does not seem to be the case.

So my question is, how do I create an Image I can use to create a Droplet from the API.

If I try to use the Snapshot it gives me this error:

{“id”:“unprocessable_entity”,“message”:“You specified an invalid image for Droplet creation.”}

The snapshot exists on the same region as where I am trying to create the new Droplet.
