{
  "builders": [
    {
      "type": "openstack",
      "provider": "http://<openstack>.metacloud.net:5000/v2.0",
      "openstack_provider": "",
      "region": "RegionOne",
      "ssh_username": "monkey",
      "image_name": "ubuntu1404_packer_test_1",
      "source_image": "https:////pkg.adfinis-sygroup.ch/centos/7.5.1804/isos/x86_64/CentOS-7-x86_64-NetInstall-1804.iso",
      "flavor": "2"
    }
  ]
}
the error i am getting is : openstack: Error launching source server: Bad request with: [POST https://iadosvip01.ece.ellucian.com:8774/v2/78e00e3a402a4d5e8b50f593e92db117/servers], error message: {"badRequest": {"message": "Invalid input for field/attribute imageRef.

i want to download the image from the site https:////pkg.adfinis-sygroup.ch/centos/7.5.1804/isos/x86_64/CentOS-7-x86_64-NetInstall-1804.iso and then create a image out of it.
i do not want to give the image id from the existing image in openstack.
how can i achieve this.

You can't do that. You need reference an image.

If you need to build from scratch, use the qemu builder and upload the image to OpenStack.
