Get Flow status API

This API endpoint is used to retrieve the current status of the Flow, even when the Flow is currently running.

Authentication

Before making a call to the built-in API, the user must receive a JWT token from the authentication API.

Step 1. Use any user with the Operator, Editor, or Administrator role to call an Etlworks Integrator authentication endpoint and receive an access token.

Step 2. Use the access token received in Step 1 to call the Etlworks Integrator API endpoints. The access token must be submitted as a header parameter, as in: Authorization:Bearer access-token.

Access tokens in the Etlworks Integrator are short-lived and self-expiring. An access token gives you access to the APIs for approximately 10 minutes. It is recommended that you refresh the access token before each call to the API.

The API endpoint parameters

PATH: /rest/v1/executions/{flowid}?optional_parameters
LEGACY PATH (we keep it for backward compatibility): /plugins/dashboard/rest/v1/flows/{flowid}?optional_parameters

EXAMPLE: https://app.etlworks.com/rest/v1/executions/1234

flowId=long. The Flow ID can be found in the Flows.

METHOD: GET
HEADER: Authorization:Bearer access-token
PARAMETERS:

messageId=UUID. Example: https://app.etlworks.com/rest/v1/executions/1234?messageId=15a20488-0224-4ae1-a52c-9ee65a69f2c5. If the value of the optional parameter messageId is not empty, the response will contain a status of the Flow execution, associated with the particular message ID. The message ID is returned as a part of the response when the Flow is executed by sending the payload to the custom endpoint.

auditId=long. Example: https://app.etlworks.com/rest/v1/executions/1234?auditId=1234567. If the value of the optional parameter auditId is not empty, the response will contain a status of the Fllow execution, associated with the particular audit ID. The audit ID is returned as a part of the response when the Flow is executed by name.

status=string. Example: https://app.etlworks.com/rest/v1/executions/1234?status=success. Use this parameter to get the last Flow execution with the specified status.
