Vagrant Cloud API (Version 2)

Using the API

Vagrant Cloud provides an API for users to interact with Vagrant Cloud for experimentation, automation, or building new features and tools on top of our existing application.

Authentication

Some API endpoints require authentication to create new resources, update or delete existing resources, or to read a private resource.

Clients can authenticate using an authentication token. The token can be passed to Vagrant Cloud one of two ways:

(Preferred) Set the Authorization header to "Bearer " and the value of the authentication token.
Pass the authentication token as an access_token URL parameter (NOTE: deprecated).

Examples below will set the header, but feel free to use whichever method is easier for your implementation.

The X-Atlas-Token header is also supported for backwards-compatibility.

Request and Response Format

Requests to Vagrant Cloud which include data attributes (POST or PUT/PATCH) should set the Content-Type header to "application/json", and include a valid JSON body with the request.

JSON responses may include an errors key, which will contain an array of error strings, as well as a success key. For example:

{
  "errors": ["Resource not found!"],
  "success": false
}

Response Codes

Vagrant Cloud may respond with the following response codes, depending on the status of the request and context:

Success

200 OK

201 Created

204 No Content

Client Errors

401 Unauthorized

You do not have authorization to access the requested resource.

402 Payment Required

You are trying to access a resource which is delinquent on billing. Please contact the owner of the resource so that they can update their billing information.

403 Forbidden

You are attempting to use the system in a way which is not allowed. There could be required request parameters that are missing, or one of the parameters is invalid. Please check the response errors key, and double-check the examples below for any discrepancies.

404 Not Found

The resource you are trying to access does not exist. This may also be returned if you attempt to access a private resource that you don't have authorization to view.

422 Unprocessable Entity

429 Too Many Requests

You are currently being rate-limited. Please decrease your frequency of usage, or contact us at support+vagrantcloud@hashicorp.com with a description of your use case so that we can consider creating an exception.

Server Errors

500 Internal Server Error

The server failed to respond to the request for an unknown reason. Please contact support+vagrantcloud@hashicorp.com with a description of the problem so that we can investigate.

503 Service Unavailable

Vagrant Cloud is temporarily in maintenance mode. Please check the HashiCorp Status Site for more information.

Creating a usable box from scratch

This assumes that you have a valid Vagrant Cloud authentication token. You can create one via the API, or create one on the Vagrant Cloud website.

In order to create a usable box on Vagrant Cloud, perform the following steps:

Create a provider

POST /api/v2/box/:username/:name/version/:version/providers

provider
- name - The name of the provider.
- url - A valid URL to download this provider. If omitted, you must upload the Vagrant box image for this provider to Vagrant Cloud before the provider can be used.

Upload a provider

GET /api/v2/box/:username/:name/version/:version/provider/:provider/:architecture/upload

Prepares the provider for upload, and returns a JSON blob containing an upload_path.

The upload must begin shortly after the response is returned, otherwise the URL will expire. If the URL expires, you can request this same API method again for a new upload URL.

Example Request

response=$(curl \
  --request GET \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $VAGRANT_CLOUD_TOKEN" \
  https://app.vagrantup.com/api/v2/box/myuser/test/version/1.2.3/provider/virtualbox/amd64/upload)

# Requires the jq command
upload_path=$(echo "$response" | jq .upload_path)

curl \
  --request PUT \
  --upload-file virtualbox-1.2.3.box \
  "${upload_path}"

# gem install http, or add `gem "http"` to your Gemfile
require "http"

api = HTTP.persistent("https://app.vagrantup.com").headers(
  "Authorization" => "Bearer #{ENV['VAGRANT_CLOUD_TOKEN']}"
)

response = api.get("/api/v2/box/myuser/test/version/1.2.3/provider/virtualbox/amd64/upload")

if response.status.success?
  # Success, you can now upload the box image to the returned URL
  upload_path = response.parse['upload_path']
  HTTP.post upload_path, body: File.open("virtualbox-1.2.3.box")
else
  # Error, inspect the `errors` key for more information.
  p response.code, response.body

Example Response

Upload a provider directly to backend storage

GET /api/v2/box/:username/:name/version/:version/provider/:provider/:architecture/upload/direct

Prepares the provider for upload. This version of the upload API allows uploading the box asset directly to the backend storage. It requires a two step process for uploading the box assets. First uploading the asset to storage and then finalizing the upload within Vagrant Cloud via a provided callback.

The request returns a JSON blob containing two fields:

upload_path - URL to PUT the box asset
callback - Vagrant Cloud callback URL to finalize upload

The box asset is uploaded directly to the URL provided by the upload_path via a PUT request. Once complete, a PUT request to the URL provided in the callback field (complete with authentication header) finalizes the upload.

The upload must begin shortly after the response is returned, otherwise the URL will expire. If the URL expires, you can request this same API method again for a new upload URL.

Example Request

response=$(curl \
  --request GET \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $VAGRANT_CLOUD_TOKEN" \
  https://app.vagrantup.com/api/v2/box/myuser/test/version/1.2.3/provider/virtualbox/amd64/upload/direct)

# Requires the jq command
upload_path=$(echo "$response" | jq .upload_path)
callback=$(echo "$response" | jq .callback)

curl \
  --request PUT \
  --upload-file virtualbox-1.2.3.box \
  "${upload_path}"

curl
  --request PUT \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $VAGRANT_CLOUD_TOKEN" \
  "${callback}"

# gem install http, or add `gem "http"` to your Gemfile
require "http"
require "uri"

api = HTTP.persistent("https://app.vagrantup.com").headers(
  "Authorization" => "Bearer #{ENV['VAGRANT_CLOUD_TOKEN']}"
)

response = api.get("/api/v2/box/myuser/test/version/1.2.3/provider/virtualbox/amd64/upload")

if response.status.success?
  # Success, you can now upload the box image to the returned URL
  upload_path = response.parse['upload_path']
  callback = response.parse['callback']
  # Upload the box asset
  HTTP.post upload_path, body: File.open("virtualbox-1.2.3.box")
  # Finalize the upload
  api.put(URI.parse(callback).path)
else
  # Error, inspect the `errors` key for more information.
  p response.code, response.body
end

Example Response

{
  "upload_path": "https://remote-storage.example.com/bucket/630e42d9-2364-2412-4121-18266770468e?auth=9023wqfda",
