Sharing Images

Image sharing enables organizations to securely share custom OS images with other NVIDIA Air organizations.

Overview

When you upload a custom image to NVIDIA Air, that image is private to your organization by default. To share an image with another organization, you generate a claim code that the target organization uses to copy the image to their organization.

Image share requests expire after 24 hours by default.

Required Permissions

Image sharing requires specific roles assigned to your account:

For information on how roles are assigned, see API Authentication.
