Example: JSON Output for an Amazon Reservation
In this example, there are 3 available compute resources that you can use to create an Amazon EC2
reservation. Save a copy of the underlyingValue section of the compute resource that you want to an
XML editor and use the section content later to create a reservation request.

Example: Output for a vCloud Reservation
In this example, there is 1 available compute resource that you can use to create a vCloud reservation.
Save a copy of the underlyingValue section of the compute resource that you want to an XML editor
and use the section content later to create a reservation request.
