Examples

Find and Run a scheduled task (JavaScript):

This example demonstrates how to find a item's schedule and then run it programmatically.

The example uses API authentication driven from JavaScript. See Authentication APIs for alternatives.

// URL of the Pyramid installation and the path to the API 3.0 REST methods
var pyramidURL = "http://mysite.com/api3/";

// step 1: authenticate admin account and get token
// NOTE: callApi method is a generic REST method shown below.
let token = callApi("authentication/authenticateUser",{
	"userName":"adminUser",
	"password":"abc123!"
},"",false);
log("got token "+token);

// step 2: get all the schedules in the system based on name search
let findSchedule= callApi("tasks/findSchedule ",{
	"searchCriteria":{
		"searchValue":"My Demo Schedule",
		"searchMatchType":2
	},
	"scheduleType":1
},token);

// step 3: extract the schedule ID property from the returned schedule that matches "My Demo Schedule"
let scheduleId = findSchedule[0].scheduleId

// step 4: launch a run of the chosen schedule now, without triggers
let runSchedule = callApi("tasks/runSchedule ",{"scheduleId": scheduleId,"checkTriggers":"false"},token);

if(runSchedule.error!=null){
	throw new Error(runSchedule.error);
}
				
				

// step 5A: OPTIONAL: get details to check running status of scheduled event. First, get execution ID
let executionId=runSchedule;
				
//stet 5B: get execution item's status. 
let taskData= callApi("tasks/getScheduleExecutionStatus ",executionId ,token);
log("executionId status is "+executionStatus[taskData.status]);

//step 5C: check status every 3 seconds
if(taskData.status!=1){
	setTimeout(getStatus,3000);
}
			
				
////############ alternative approach #################
//step 6a: get task items in that execution. 
let tasks= callApi("tasks/getTasksIds ",executionId,token);

//step 6B: get the ID of the single task in that execution. 
let taskId = tasks[0].id
log("got task "+taskId);

//step 6C: get status of the task. 
getStatus();



function getStatus(){
	let taskData= callApi("tasks/getTaskData ",taskId ,token);
	log("task status is "+taskData.status);
	if(taskData.status!=1){
		setTimeout(getStatus,3000);
	}
}
				
////############ other methods #################

//step 7: pause the schedule
let suspend= callApi("tasks/suspendSchedule",scheduleId, token);

//step 8: restart the schedule
let resume= callApi("tasks/resumeSchedule",scheduleId, token);



// ##### optional generic login method for debugging ##############
function log(msg){
	document.write(msg);
	console.log(msg);
}

// ##### generic REST API calling method ##############
function callApi(path,data,token="",parseResult=true){
	var xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
	xhttp.open("POST", pyramidURL+path, false);
	xhttp.setRequestHeader("paToken",token)
	xhttp.send(JSON.stringify(data));
	if(parseResult){
		return JSON.parse(xhttp.responseText);
	}else{
		return xhttp.responseText;
	}
}
