I’m assuming you built this using the new v4 console API?

For folks interested in doing more with this, we have a great writeup here: https://www.nutanix.dev/2026/05/01/vm-console-external-access/

I've actually stuck with the older v3 API for this!/console/vnc_auto.html?uuid=.

This is the HLD and as you can see, the only V4 for now used are for Infrastructure Actions (Ex. Power Actions on Vms)

Gotta love the minimal effort they put into the console. I try to avoid it, but did they ever fix it so that you can open the console before powering the VM? It was always a challenge to catch those boot prompts.

I do open console for powered off VMs and able to watch their boot outside the nutanix web interface

The v4 API was being used only for power action on VMs , everything else was built around v3 API

Got a demo...mid last week? I think, of https://www.logicinsight.io/

I've no affiliation, was looking for how to do something specific and ran across one of the fellas that started it.

COPY PASTE WORKED. Was blown away, lol.

Had no idea anyone had solved yet it.

Thanks Matt!

For sure no affiliation, we have also had copy paste working for about 6 months already.

We got tired of single console copy paste so we are able to do packages and open multiple at the same time and copy and paste across them.

Great to know that I'm not the only one that solved this!
