Image Identifiers
=================

Images are uniquely identified by way of a URI that
matches the following signature::

  <Glance Server Location>/v1/images/<ID>

where `<Glance Server Location>` is the resource location of the Glance service
that knows about an image, and `<ID>` is the image's identifier. Image
identifiers in Glance are *uuids*, making them *globally unique*.
