Jie Feng commented on CLOUDSTACK-583:
-------------------------------------

Forgot to mention that service offering is more critical than zone. For zone, 
there is another workaround, which is to look at a template in the UI and find 
the zone ID for the template. But for service offering, it is no where to be 
found for a user. So I recommend to prioritize service offering support above 
zone if they cannot both be fixed in the same release.Thanks.

> Use case: When a user uses a third party program to instantiate a VM through 
> CloudStack API, s/he needs to provide service offering ID and zone ID (in 
> addition to template ID). However, these are not exposed in the CloudStack 
> UI. (i.e. user cannot see Service Offering and Zones in CloudStack UI). A 
> workaround is to make a signed API call to get this information, which is not 
> easy to do for a regular user.
