Issue/Introduction

Hi there, 

I have a quick question regarding AutoSys rest api.  
How do I go about getting the information below for job through Rest.

Environment

Autosys 12.x

Resolution

We do not have CURL examples for you.
You should be able to take the examples in the documentation and create a curl command.
Example 1:
example from the documentation:

 -- request --
GET https://WSServer:9443/AEWS/job/sleep1
 -- response --
200 OK
Server:  Apache-Coyote/1.1
Cache-Control:  private
Expires:  Wed, 31 Dec 1969 19:00:00 EST
Content-Type:  application/json
Transfer-Encoding:  chunked
Content-Encoding:  gzip
Vary:  Accept-Encoding
Date:  Wed, 01 Feb 2012 20:27:14 GMT
{"name":"sleep1","jobType":"CMD","machine":"WSServer","self":{"@rel":"self","@href":"https://WSServer:9443/AEWS/job/sleep1"},"status":"4"}

example curl command
curl -v -k --user "ejmcommander:ejmcommander" -X GET https://WSServer.company.com:9443/AEWS/job/mark1

example job definition that shows service desk configurations:
curl -v -k --user "ejmcommander:ejmcommander" -X GET https://WSServer.company.com:9443/AEWS/jil/job?name=mark1

* Server auth using Basic with user 'ejmcommander'
> GET /AEWS/jil/job?name=mark1 HTTP/1.1
> Host: WSServer.company.com:9443
> Authorization: Basic ZWptY29tbWFuZGVyOmVqbWNvbW1hbmRlcg==
> User-Agent: curl/7.61.1
> Accept: */*

insert_job: mark1   job_type: CMD 
command: echo 123
machine: WSServer.company.com

* Connection #0 to host WSServer.company.com left intact

Example 2:
You can pull the job information using a filter on box name
example:
curl -v -k --user "ejmcommander:ejmcommander" -X GET https://WSServer.company.com:9443/AEWS/job?filter=boxname==Mark_Box

Sample response
{
    "job": [{
            "boxName": "Mark_Box",
            "name": "mark1",
            "jobType": "CMD",
            "machine": "WSServer.company.com",
            "self": {
                "@href": "https://WSServer.company.com:9443/AEWS/job/mark1",
                "@rel": "self"
            },
            "status": "4"
        }, {
            "boxName": "Mark_Box",
            "name": "mark2",
            "jobType": "CMD",
            "machine": "WSServer.company.com",
            "self": {
                "@href": "https://WSServer.company.com:9443/AEWS/job/mark2",
                "@rel": "self"
            },
            "status": "4"
        }, {
            "boxName": "Mark_Box",
            "name": "mark3",
            "jobType": "CMD",
            "machine": "WSServer.company.com",
            "self": {
                "@href": "https://WSServer.company.com:9443/AEWS/job/mark3",
                "@rel": "self"
            },
            "status": "4"
        }
    ],
    "self": {
        "@href": "https://WSServer.company.com:9443/AEWS/job?filter=boxname==Mark_Box",
        "@rel": "self"
    }
}

Example 3:

Below is an example of pulling a list of jobs that all have the service_desk field set to true or 1.

curl -v -k --user "ejmcommander:ejmcommander" -X GET https://WSServer.company.com:9443/AEWS/jil/job?name=ALL  | egrep "insert_job|service_desk: 1" | grep -B 1 "service_desk: 1" | grep insert_job | awk '{ print $2 }' | xargs -n 1 autorep -q -J

This same thing can be done with the autorep command as well.
autorep -J % -q | egrep "insert_job|service_desk: 1" | grep -B 1 "service_desk: 1" | grep insert_job | awk '{ print $2 }'| xargs -n 1 autorep -q -J
