Quick Reference | Action | Endpoint | Method | |--------|----------|--------| | List nodes | /nodes | GET | | List VMs | /nodes/{node}/qemu | GET | | List LXC | /nodes/{node}/lxc | GET | | Create VM | /nodes/{node}/qemu | POST | | Create LXC | /nodes/{node}/lxc | POST | | Clone | /nodes/{node}/qemu/{vmid}/clone | POST | | Start | /nodes/{node}/qemu/{vmid}/status/start | POST | | Stop | /nodes/{node}/qemu/{vmid}/status/stop | POST | | Snapshot | /nodes/{node}/qemu/{vmid}/snapshot | POST | | Delete | /nodes/{node}/qemu/{vmid} | DELETE | | Next ID | /cluster/nextid | GET | ## Notes - Use `-k` for self-signed certs - API tokens don't need CSRF - Replace `{node}` with node name (e.g., `pve`) - Replace `{vmid}` with VM/container ID - Use `qemu` for VMs, `lxc` for containers - All create/clone operations return task UPID for tracking
