Cloning VM thru API doesn't return taskid

[zpopovski]

Hi,

I have a problem with cloning the vm because the /clone end point is not returning any taskid. I have implemented one workaround for testing if the VM is cloned or nor, so i am sending every 5 sec one get request on /config end point and i am testing if key "lock" exist and if the value is set to "clone" because i saw that key "lock" doesnt exist in the json response when the vm is cloned. To be honest, i dont like this workaround, can you please tell me possible reason why i am getting empty string instead of taskid when i am calling /clone api end point?
Thanks.

both the LXC and the Qemu clone endpoint return a UPID (if the task was successfully forked, if one of the preliminary checks failed it should return an error with corresponding status code). please provide the full request/response (censoring sensitive information).

Thank alot for your confirmation for the endpoint UPID response, i found that the problem was in my code. Now i'll finally replace the workaround.
