Cancelling Jobs via Jobs API

Details on how to cancel a job using the Jobs REST API

This page guides you through the process of cancelling a job using the Jobs API.

❗️

Jobs execute asynchronously, so any work already in progress won't be cancelled. As a result, you may still receive data after cancellation.

Required Parameters

Before using the Jobs API, ensure you have the following:

  • Job ID: The ID of the specific job you want to query.
  • Pipeline ID: The ID of the pipeline for which you want to list jobs.
  • Component ID: The ID of the component within the pipeline.

Cancel Job

To cancel a specific job

curl --request PATCH --location 'https://api.platform.datastreamer.io/api/pipelines/:PipelineId/components/:ComponentId/jobs/:JobId/state/cancelled' \
--header 'apikey: API_KEY'

Example

Here is an example of how the curl command might look after replacing the placeholders:

curl --location 'https://api.platform.datastreamer.io/api/pipelines/12345/components/67890/jobs/job123/state/cancelled' \
--header 'apikey: abcdef123456'

The API will return a JSON response containing details of the job after cancellation.
