Sure, can you try something like this to restore a volume from the latest snapshot.

# Specify the uuid of the volume vol_uuid = 'your_volume_uuid' snapshot_name = None # Set to None to use the latest snapshot # Find the snapshot snapshots = Snapshot.get_collection(vol_uuid) latest_snapshot = None latest_snapshot_time = 0 for snapshot in snapshots: if latest_snapshot == None or snapshot.create_time > latest_snapshot_time: latest_snapshot_time = snapshot.create_time latest_snapshot = snapshot snapshot_name = latest_snapshot.name # Restore the volume from the snapshot vol = Volume(uuid=vol_uuid) vol.patch(**{'restore_to.snapshot.name': snapshot_name})

Here is a previous discussion on just restoring from a given snapshot: https://community.netapp.com/t5/ONTAP-Rest-API-Discussions/Snapshot-Restore/td-p/159284
