FlashArray REST API (2.1)

Download OpenAPI specification:Download

Authorization

Pure Storage uses the OAuth 2.0 Token Exchange authorization grant and JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) to authenticate to the Pure Storage REST API. Before you can exchange the ID Token for an access token, create and enable the API client to generate the key_id, id, and issuer values. These values will be used as JWT claims for the subject_token parameter.

Get access token

Exchanges an ID Token for an OAuth 2.0 access token.

header Parameters
X-Request-ID
string

Supplied by client during request or generated by server.

Request Body schema: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
grant_type
required
string (formData_OauthGrantType)
Default: "urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:token-exchange"

The method by which the access token will be obtained. The Pure Storage REST API supports the OAuth 2.0 "token exchange" grant type, which indicates that a token exchange is being performed. Set grant_type to urn:ietf:params:oauth:grant-type:token-exchange.

subject_token
required
string (formData_OauthSubjectToken)

An encoded security ID Token representing the identity of the party on behalf of whom the request is being made. The token must be issued by a trusted identity provider which must be either a registered application in Pure1 or an enabled API client on the array. The token must be a JSON Web Token and must contain the following claims:

| JWT claim | Location | API Client Field | Description | Required By |

|-|-|-|-|-|

| kid | Header | key_id | Key ID of the API client that issues the identity token. | FlashArray and FlashBlade only. |

| aud | Payload | id | Client ID of the API client that issues the identity token. | FlashArray and FlashBlade only. |

| sub | Payload | | Login name of the array user for whom the token should be issued. This must be a valid user in the system. | FlashArray and FlashBlade only. |

| iss | Payload | issuer | Application ID for the Pure1 or API client's trusted identity issuer on the array. | All products. |

| iat | Payload | | Timestamp of when the identity token was issued. Measured in milliseconds since the UNIX epoch. | All products. |

| exp | Payload | | Timestamp of when the identity token will expire. Measured in milliseconds since the UNIX epoch. | All products. |

Each token must also be signed with the private key that is paired with the API client's public key.

subject_token_type
required
string (formData_OauthSubjectTokenType)
Default: "urn:ietf:params:oauth:token-type:jwt"

An identifier that indicates the type of security token specifed in the subject_token parameter. The Pure Storage REST API supports the JSON Web Token (JWT) as the means for requesting the access token. Set subject_token_type to urn:ietf:params:oauth:token-type:jwt.

API Clients

An API client represents an identity type. API clients are created on the array. To create an API client, register and then enable it on the array. After the API client has been created, the user name (sub) and identity tokens (kid and aud tokens) that are issued by the API client are used as claims for the JSON Web Token that you create to authenticate into the REST API.

List API clients

Returns a list of API clients.

query Parameters
filter
string

Narrows down the results to only the response objects that satisfy the filter criteria.

ids
Array of strings

Performs the operation on the unique resource IDs specified. Enter multiple resource IDs in comma-separated format. The ids or names parameter is required, but they cannot be set together.

limit
integer <int32> >= 0
Example: limit=10

Limits the size of the response to the specified number of objects on each page. To return the total number of resources, set limit=0. The total number of resources is returned as a total_item_count value. If the page size requested is larger than the system maximum limit, the server returns the maximum limit, disregarding the requested page size.

names
Array of strings

Performs the operation on the unique name specified. Enter multiple names in comma-separated format. For example, name01,name02.

offset
integer <int32> >= 0
Example: offset=10

The starting position based on the results of the query in relation to the full set of response objects returned.

sort
Array of strings

Returns the response objects in the order specified. Set sort to the name in the response by which to sort. Sorting can be performed on any of the names in the response, and the objects can be sorted in ascending or descending order. By default, the response objects are sorted in ascending order. To sort in descending order, append the minus sign (-) to the name. A single request can be sorted on multiple objects. For example, you can sort all volumes from largest to smallest volume size, and then sort volumes of the same size in ascending order by volume name. To sort on multiple names, list the names as comma-separated values.

total_item_count
boolean

If set to true, the total_item_count matching the specified query parameters is calculated and returned in the response. If set to false, the total_item_count is null in the response. This may speed up queries where the total_item_count is large. If not specified, defaults to false.

header Parameters
Authorization
string

Access token (in JWT format) required to use any API endpoint (except /oauth2, /login, and /logout)

X-Request-ID
string

Supplied by client during request or generated by server.

Request Body schema: application/json
max_role
string

The maximum role allowed for ID Tokens issued by this API client. The bearer of an access token will be authorized to perform actions within the intersection of this max_role and the role of the array user specified as the sub. Valid values are array_admin, storage_admin, ops_admin, and readonly. Users with the readonly (Read Only) role can perform operations that convey the state of the array. Read Only users cannot alter the state of the array. Users with the ops_admin (Ops Admin) role can perform the same operations as Read Only users plus enable and disable remote assistance sessions. Ops Admin users cannot alter the state of the array. Users with the storage_admin (Storage Admin) role can perform the same operations as Read Only users plus storage related operations, such as administering volumes, hosts, and host groups. Storage Admin users cannot perform operations that deal with global and system configurations. Users with the array_admin (Array Admin) role can perform the same operations as Storage Admin users plus array-wide changes dealing with global and system configurations. In other words, Array Admin users can perform all operations.

Connections

A connection gives hosts access to volumes on the array. The system supports private (host-volume) connections and public (host group-volume) connections. A private connection connects one volume to one host. Private connections are typically used for boot volumes and for stand-alone (non-clustered) host applications. A shared connection connects a designated set of hosts (via a host group) to a designated set of volumes, providing the hosts with a consistent "view" of the volumes. All associated hosts use the same LUN to address a given associated volume. All hosts and volumes associated with a host group are automatically connected to each other by virtue of their associations with the group. Shared connections are useful for cluster applications in which several related hosts require consistent (same LUN) connectivity to a set of storage volumes.

List volume connections

Returns a list of connections between a volume and its hosts and host groups, and the LUNs used by the associated hosts to address these volumes.

query Parameters
continuation_token
string

A token used to retrieve the next page of data with some consistency guaranteed. The token is a Base64 encoded value. Set continuation_token to the system-generated token taken from the x-next-token header field of the response. A query has reached its last page when the response does not include a token. Pagination requires the limit and continuation_token query parameters.

Request Body schema: application/json
lun
integer <int32> [ 1 .. 4095 ]

The logical unit number (LUN) by which the specified hosts are to address the specified volume. If the LUN is not specified, the system automatically assigns a LUN to the connection. To automatically assign a LUN to a private connection, the system starts at LUN 1 and counts up to the maximum LUN 4095, assigning the first available LUN to the connection. For shared connections, the system starts at LUN 254 and counts down to the minimum LUN 1, assigning the first available LUN to the connection. If all LUNs in the [1...254] range are taken, the system starts at LUN 255 and counts up to the maximum LUN 4095, assigning the first available LUN to the connection.

object

A protocol endpoint (also known as a conglomerate volume) which acts as a proxy through which virtual volumes are created and then connected to VMware ESXi hosts or host groups. The protocol endpoint itself does not serve I/Os; instead, its job is to form connections between FlashArray volumes and ESXi hosts and host groups.

Host groups implement consistent connections between a set of hosts and one or more volumes. Connections are consistent in the sense that all hosts associated with a host group address a volume connected to the group by the same LUN. Host groups are typically used to provide a common view of storage volumes to the hosts in a clustered application.

List host groups

Returns a list of host groups.

query Parameters
continuation_token
string

A token used to retrieve the next page of data with some consistency guaranteed. The token is a Base64 encoded value.

query Parameters
filter
string

Narrows down the results to only the response objects that satisfy the filter criteria.

limit
integer <int32> >= 0
Example: limit=10

Limits the size of the response to the specified number of objects on each page. To return the total number of resources, set limit=0. The total number of resources is returned as a total_item_count value. If the page size requested is larger than the system maximum limit, the server returns the maximum limit, disregarding the requested page size.

names
Array of strings

Performs the operation on the unique name specified. Enter multiple names in comma-separated format. For example, name01,name02.

offset
integer <int32> >= 0

sort
Array of strings

Returns the response objects in the order specified. Set sort to the name in the response by which to sort. Sorting can be performed on any of the names in the response, and the objects can be sorted in ascending or descending order. By default, the response objects are sorted in ascending order. To sort in descending order, append the minus sign (-) to the name. A single request can be sorted on multiple objects. For example, you can sort all volumes from largest to smallest volume size, and then sort volumes of the same size in ascending order by volume name. To sort on multiple names, list the names as comma-separated values.

total_item_count
boolean

If set to true, the total_item_count matching the specified query parameters is calculated and returned in the response. If set to false, the total_item_count is null in the response. This may speed up queries where the total_item_count is large. If not specified, defaults to false.

total_only
boolean

If set to true, returns the aggregate value of all items after filtering. Where it makes more sense, the average value is displayed instead. The values are displayed for each name where meaningful. If total_only=true, the items list will be empty.

destroyed
boolean

If set to true, the pod has been destroyed and is pending eradication. The time_remaining value displays the amount of time left until the destroyed pod is permanently eradicated. A pod can only be destroyed if it is empty, so before destroying a pod, ensure all volumes and protection groups inside the pod have been either moved out of the pod or destroyed. A stretched pod cannot be destroyed unless you unstretch it first. Before the time_remaining period has elapsed, the destroyed pod can be recovered by setting destroyed=false. Once the time_remaining period has elapsed, the pod is permanently eradicated and can no longer be recovered.

Array of objects (_reference)

Determines which array within a stretched pod should be given priority to stay online should the arrays ever lose contact with each other. The current array and any peer arrays that are connected to the current array for synchronous replication can be added to a pod for failover preference.

After a pod has been unstretched, synchronous replication stops. A destroyed version of the pod with "restretch" appended to the pod name is created on the array that no longer has the pod. The restretch pod represents a point-in-time snapshot of the pod, just before it was unstretched. The restretch pod enters an eradication pending period starting from the time that the pod was unstretched. A restretch can pod can be cloned or destroyed, but it cannot be explicitly recovered. The group_names parameter represents the name of the pod to be unstretched. The member_names parameter represents the name of the array from which the pod is to be unstretched. The group_names and member_names parameters are required and must be set together.

query Parameters
continuation_token
string

A token used to retrieve the next page of data with some consistency guaranteed. The token is a Base64 encoded value. Set continuation_token to the system-generated token taken from the x-next-token header field of the response. A query has reached its last page when the response does not include a token. Pagination requires the limit and continuation_token query parameters.

filter
string

Narrows down the results to only the response objects that satisfy the filter criteria.

group_names
Array of strings

Performs the operation on the unique group name specified. Examples of groups include host groups, pods, protection groups, and volume groups. Enter multiple names in comma-separated format. For example, hgroup01,hgroup02.

limit
integer <int32> >= 0
Example: limit=10

Limits the size of the response to the specified number of objects on each page. To return the total number of resources, set limit=0.

sort
Array of strings

Returns the response objects in the order specified. Set sort to the name in the response by which to sort. Sorting can be performed on any of the names in the response, and the objects can be sorted in ascending or descending order. By default, the response objects are sorted in ascending order. To sort in descending order, append the minus sign (-) to the name. A single request can be sorted on multiple objects. For example, you can sort all volumes from largest to smallest volume size, and then sort volumes of the same size in ascending order by volume name. To sort on multiple names, list the names as comma-separated values.

total_item_count
boolean

If set to true, the total_item_count matching the specified query parameters is calculated and returned in the response. If set to false, the total_item_count is null in the response. This may speed up queries where the total_item_count is large. If not specified, defaults to false.

header Parameters

Protection Group Snapshots

Protection group snapshots capture the content of all volumes on the source array for the specified protection group at a single point in time. The snapshot is an immutable image of the volume data at that instance in time. The volumes are either direct members of the protection group or connected to any of its hosts or host groups within a protection group. Volumes are protected through protection group snapshots that are retained locally, replicated to other arrays or storage systems, or both. Protection group snapshots can be manually generated on demand or enabled to automatically generate at scheduled intervals. After a protection group snapshot has been taken, it is either stored on the local array or replicated over to a remote (target) array.

List protection group snapshots

Returns a list of protection group snapshots, including those pending eradication.

query Parameters
continuation_token
string

A token used to retrieve the next page of data with some consistency guaranteed. The token is a Base64 encoded value. Set continuation_token to the system-generated token taken from the x-next-token header field of the response. A query has reached its last page when the response does not include a token. Pagination requires the limit and continuation_token query parameters.

destroyed
boolean

If set to true, lists only destroyed objects that are in the eradication pending state. If set to false, lists only objects that are not destroyed. For destroyed objects, the time remaining is displayed in milliseconds.

filter
string

Narrows down the results to only the response objects that satisfy the filter criteria.

limit
integer <int32> >= 0
Example: limit=10

Limits the size of the response to the specified number of objects on each page. To return the total number of resources, set limit=0. The total number of resources is returned as a total_item_count value. If the page size requested is larger than the system maximum limit, the server returns the maximum limit, disregarding the requested page size.

names
Array of strings

Performs the operation on the unique name specified. Enter multiple names in comma-separated format. For example, name01,name02.

offset
integer <int32> >= 0
Example: offset=10

The starting position based on the results of the query in relation to the full set of response objects returned.

sort
Array of strings

Returns the response objects in the order specified. Set sort to the name in the response by which to sort. Sorting can be performed on any of the names in the response, and the objects can be sorted in ascending or descending order. By default, the response objects are sorted in ascending order. To sort in descending order, append the minus sign (-) to the name. A single request can be sorted on multiple objects. For example, you can sort all volumes from largest to smallest volume size, and then sort volumes of the same size in ascending order by volume name. To sort on multiple names, list the names as comma-separated values.

source_names
Array of strings

Performs the operation on the source name specified. Enter multiple source names in comma-separated format. For example, name01,name02.

total_item_count
boolean

If set to true, the total_item_count matching the specified query parameters is calculated and returned in the response. If set to false, the total_item_count is null in the response. This may speed up queries where the total_item_count is large. If not specified, defaults to false.

total_only
boolean

If set to true, returns the aggregate value of all items after filtering. Where it makes more sense, the average value is displayed instead. The values are displayed for each name where meaningful. If total_only=true, the items list will be empty.

header Parameters
Authorization
string

Access token (in JWT format) required to use any API endpoint (except /oauth2, /login, and /logout)

X-Request-ID
string

If start_time is not specified, the start time will default to one resolution before the end time, meaning that the most recent sample of performance data will be displayed. If end_timeis not specified, the end time will default to the current time. Include the resolution parameter to display the performance data at the specified resolution. If not specified, resolution defaults to the lowest valid resolution.

resolution
integer <int64> >= 0
Example: resolution=30000

The number of milliseconds between samples of historical data. For array-wide performance metrics (/arrays/performance endpoint), valid values are 1000 (1 second), 30000 (30 seconds), 300000 (5 minutes), 1800000 (30 minutes), 7200000 (2 hours), 28800000 (8 hours), and 86400000 (24 hours). For performance metrics on storage objects (<object name>/performance endpoint), such as volumes, valid values are 30000 (30 seconds), 300000 (5 minutes), 1800000 (30 minutes), 7200000 (2 hours), 28800000 (8 hours), and 86400000 (24 hours). For space metrics, (<object name>/space endpoint), valid values are 300000 (5 minutes), 1800000 (30 minutes), 7200000 (2 hours), 28800000 (8 hours), and 86400000 (24 hours). Include the start_time parameter to display the performance data starting at the specified start time. If start_time is not specified, the start time will default to one resolution before the end time, meaning that the most recent sample of performance data will be displayed. Include the end_time parameter to display the performance data until the specified end time. If end_timeis not specified, the end time will default to the current time. If the resolution parameter is not specified but either the start_time or end_time parameter is, then resolution will default to the lowest valid resolution.

Pagination requires the limit and continuation_token query parameters.

destroyed
boolean

If set to true, lists only destroyed objects that are in the eradication pending state. If set to false, lists only objects that are not destroyed. For destroyed objects, the time remaining is displayed in milliseconds.

filter
string

Narrows down the results to only the response objects that satisfy the filter criteria.

ids
Array of strings

Performs the operation on the unique resource IDs specified. Enter multiple resource IDs in comma-separated format. The ids or names parameter is required, but they cannot be set together.

limit
integer <int32> >= 0
Example: limit=10

Limits the size of the response to the specified number of objects on each page. To return the total number of resources, set limit=0. The total number of resources is returned as a total_item_count value. If the page size requested is larger than the system maximum limit, the server returns the maximum limit, disregarding the requested page size.

names
Array of strings

Performs the operation on the unique name specified. Enter multiple names in comma-separated format. For example, name01,name02.

offset
integer <int32> >= 0
Example: offset=10

The starting position based on the results of the query in relation to the full set of response objects returned.

sort
Array of strings

Returns the response objects in the order specified. Set sort to the name in the response by which to sort. Sorting can be performed on any of the names in the response, and the objects can be sorted in ascending or descending order. By default, the response objects are sorted in ascending order. To sort in descending order, append the minus sign (-) to the name. A single request can be sorted on multiple objects. For example, you can sort all volumes from largest to smallest volume size, and then sort volumes of the same size in ascending order by volume name. To sort on multiple names, list the names as comma-separated values.

source_ids
Array of strings

Performs the operation on the source ID specified. Enter multiple source IDs in comma-separated format.

source_names
Array of strings

Performs the operation on the source name specified. Enter multiple source names in comma-separated format. For example, name01,name02.

total_item_count
boolean

If set to true, the total_item_count matching the specified query parameters is calculated and returned in the response. If set to false, the total_item_count is null in the response. This may speed up queries where the total_item_count is large. If not specified, defaults to false.

total_only
boolean

If set to true, returns the aggregate value of all items after filtering. Where it makes more sense, the average value is displayed instead. The values are displayed for each name where meaningful. If total_only=true, the items list will be empty.

header Parameters
Authorization
string

Access token (in JWT format) required to use any API endpoint (except /oauth2, /login, and /logout)

X-Request-ID
string

Supplied by client during request or generated by server.

Request Body schema: application/json
destroyed
boolean

If set to true, destroys a resource. Once set to true, the time_remaining value will display the amount of time left until the destroyed resource is permanently eradicated. Before the time_remaining period has elapsed, the destroyed resource can be recovered by setting destroyed=false. Once the time_remaining period has elapsed, the resource is permanently eradicated and can no longer be recovered.

suffix
string

The suffix that is appended to the source_name value to generate the full volume snapshot name in the form VOL.SUFFIX. If the suffix is not specified, the system constructs the snapshot name in the form VOL.NNN, where VOL is the volume name, and NNN is a monotonically increasing number.
