List All Images
gpu_droplets.images.list(ImageListParams**kwargs) -> ImageListResponse
get/v2/images

To list all of the images available on your account, send a GET request to /v2/images.

Filtering Results


It's possible to request filtered results by including certain query parameters.

Image Type

Either 1-Click Application or OS Distribution images can be filtered by using the type query parameter.

Important: The type query parameter does not directly relate to the type attribute.

To retrieve only distribution images, include the type query parameter set to distribution, /v2/images?type=distribution.

To retrieve only application images, include the type query parameter set to application, /v2/images?type=application.

User Images

To retrieve only the private images of a user, include the private query parameter set to true, /v2/images?private=true.

Tags

To list all images assigned to a specific tag, include the tag_name query parameter set to the name of the tag in your GET request. For example, /v2/images?tag_name=$TAG_NAME.
