# SuSE MicroOS image snapshot on Hetzner Cloud
Create an MicroOS-based snapshot on [Hetzner Cloud](https://www.hetzner.com/cloud) using [packer](https://www.packer.io).
## Installing
On macOS just use [brew](https://brew.sh):
```bash
brew install packer
```
For other OSes and more details see the [packer documentation](https://developer.hashicorp.com/packer).
## Building
Get an API token for your hcloud project (see [here](https://docs.hetzner.com/cloud/api/getting-started/generating-api-token/)) and run `packer build`.
```bash
export HCLOUD_TOKEN=
packer build hcloud-microos-snapshot.pkr.hcl
```
The snapshot is created in your project and can then be used.
## Using the snapshot
You can refere to the snapshot by using it's ID.
```bash
# list the snapshot by using it's label
> hcloud image list -l microos-snapshot
