Hello, @cto3a70ae5eca1d2b3153833c5

In order to launch a new droplet based on a snapshot, you need to supply it’s ID for the image parameter:

curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    -H 'Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN' -d \
    '{"name":"example.com","region":"nyc3","size":"512mb","image":12345}'\
    "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/droplets"

Hope this helps!

Regards,
Alex
