cis tagging tag association: list attachable tags

Fetches the array of attachable tags for the given object, omitting the tags that have already been attached. Criteria for attachability is calculated based on tagging cardinality (cis.tagging.category_model.cardinality) and associability (cis.tagging.category_model.associable_types) constructs. To invoke this operation, you need the read privilege on the input object. The array will only contain those tags for which you have read privileges.

Request:

HTTP request

POST https://{server}/rest/com/vmware/cis/tagging/tag-association?~action=list-attachable-tags

Request Body Structure:

{
    "object_id": {
        "id": "obj-103",
        "type": "string"
    }
}
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<ns0:ListAttachableTags-Input xmlns:ns0="http://vmware.com/cis/tagging/tag_association" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
  <object_id>
    <id>obj-103</id>
    <type>string</type>
  </object_id>
</ns0:ListAttachableTags-Input>

Request Body Parameters:

Name Type Description
bold = required
object_id dynamic_ID The identifier of the input object.
object_id.type string The type of resource being identified (for example com.acme.Person).

Services that contain operations for creating and deleting resources typically contain a constant specifying the resource type for the resources being created and deleted. The API metamodel metadata services include a service that allows retrieving all the known resource types.
object_id.id string The identifier for a resource whose type is specified by vapi.std.dynamic_ID.type.

When clients pass a value of this structure as a parameter, the field type must contain the actual resource type. When operations return a value of this structure as a result, the field type will contain the actual resource type.
