NexGen Cloud Snapshots API

A snapshot is a point-in-time copy of a virtual machine or volume. Snapshots are stored in the same region as the source resource and can be used to clone, restore, or migrate state. Snapshot creation is non-blocking, the source VM remains running while the snapshot completes in the background.

NexGen Cloud Snapshots API is one of 65 APIs that NexGen Cloud publishes on the APIs.io network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification.

Tagged areas include Snapshots. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, API documentation, an API reference, a getting-started guide, authentication docs, and rate-limit docs.

This API exposes 7 operations across 6 paths, and defines 43 schemas. It is described by OpenAPI 3.2.0, at version 1.0.

Requests are made against a single base URL, https://infrahub-api.nexgencloud.com/v1.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of NexGen Cloud Snapshots API, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
