# Snapshot Management API
|
||
|
|
||
|
Use the [Snapshot Management (SM)]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/opensearch/snapshots/snapshot-restore#take-snapshots) API to automate [taking snapshots]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/opensearch/snapshots/snapshot-restore#take-snapshots).

## Explain
|
||
|
Introduced 2.1
|
||
|
{: .label .label-purple }
|
||
|
|
||
|
Provides the enabled/disabled status and the metadata for all policies specified. Multiple policy names are separated with `,`. You can also specify desired policies with a wildcard pattern.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<img src="{{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/images/sm-state-machine.png" alt="SM State Machine" width="150" style="float: left; margin-right: 15px;"/>
|
||
|
|
||
|
SM uses a state machine for snapshot creation and deletion. The image on the left shows one execution period of the creation workflow, from the CREATION_START state to the CREATION_FINISHED state. Deletion workflow follows the same pattern as creation workflow.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The creation workflow starts in the CREATION_START state and continuously checks if the conditions in the creation cron schedule are met. After the conditions are met, the creation workflow switches to the CREATION_CONDITION_MET state and continues to the CREATING state. The CREATING state calls the create snapshot API asynchronously and then waits for snapshot creation to end in the CREATION_FINISHED state. Once snapshot creation ends, the creation workflow goes back to the CREATION_START state, and the cycle continues. The `current_state` field of `metadata.creation` and `metadata.deletion` returns the current state of the state machine.
