Hello!
Could you please allow creation of volumes without snapshot usage at all?

ebsarr commented

I am afraid the API does not allow to create a snapshot policy with 0 count. And at least one snapshot policy is a mandatory parameter when creating a volume. See https://www.packet.net/developers/api/volumes/

@vielmetti : Do you have any advise on this ?

Thanks for reply!
Well, via Web console it's possible to create Volume without Snapshot Policy.
I also tried to remove the Snapshot Policy after creation via 'packet storage delete-snapshot-policy', but don't able to find ID string for '--policy-id'. Where is it?

Thanks @ebsarr @inemylostyvyi - I've pinged @mmlb to see what he thinks.

@ebsarr thankfully the new portal goes straight to api so if in doubt fireup browser console 🙌!! So api will be just fine if you send an empty array for snapshot_policies, it may even be fine if you omit it too.

@mmlb thanks. I’ll modify the code to pass an empty slice of snapshot_policies and see how it behaves .
