8.15. Reverting tag changes by using the API

Procedure

1. You can restore a repository tag to its previous image by using the POST /api/v1/repository/{repository}/tag/{tag}/restore command. For example:

   $ curl -X POST \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer <bearer_token>" \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     --data '{
       "manifest_digest": <manifest_digest>
     }' \
     quay-server.example.com/api/v1/repository/quayadmin/busybox/tag/test/restore

   Example output

   {}

2. To see a list of tags after restoring an old tag you can use the GET /api/v1/repository/{repository}/tag/ command. For example:

   $ curl -X GET \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer <bearer_token>" \
     -H "Accept: application/json" \
      https://<quay-server.example.com>/api/v1/repository/<namespace>/<repository_name>/tag

   Example output
