Pure Storage File System Snapshots API

A file system snapshot is a point-in-time copy of a file system. Multiple snapshots of a file system can be copied for different points in time. A snapshot policy can also be applied to a file system for automatic creation and retention of snapshots. Additionally, file system snapshots can also be sent from one array to another.

Pure Storage File System Snapshots API is one of 130 APIs that Pure Storage publishes on the APIs.io network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification.

This API exposes 12 JSON Schema definitions.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Pure Storage File System 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.
