Workflows

find-image-and-launch-instance
Discover a shape and image, then launch a compute instance using them.
Lists shapes and images in the compartment, selects the first of each, and launches an instance referencing the discovered shape and image OCIDs.
3 steps inputs: availabilityDomain, compartmentId, displayName, operatingSystem, subnetId outputs: imageId, instanceId, shapeName
1
listShapes
List the compute shapes available in the compartment.
2
listImages
List images in the compartment filtered by operating system, taking the first match as the boot image.
3
launchInstance
Launch a new instance referencing the discovered shape and image in the requested subnet and availability domain.

  title: Oracle Cloud Find Image And Launch Instance
  summary: Pick a compatible shape and image in a compartment, then launch an instance with them.
  description: >-
    Resolves the inputs needed to launch a compute instance from catalog data
    rather than hard-coded OCIDs. The workflow lists the available shapes in the
    compartment, lists images for the requested operating system, then launches
    a new instance wired to the first matching shape and image. Every step
    spells out its request inline so the flow can be read and executed without
    opening the underlying OpenAPI description.
