The relevant excerpt looks like this (from a server details request):
"image": {
"id": "70a599e0-31e7-49b7-b260-868f441e862b",
"links": [
{
"href":
"http://openstack.example.com/openstack/images/70a599e0-31e7-49b7-b260-868f441e862b",
"rel": "bookmark"
}
]
},
I think it does need to be the full URL. If not we can just drop the links
property as the id is supplied separately anyway.
Regards,
Chris
