Scope
The JOC Cockpit comes with a REST Web Service interface. This interface is used for tasks such as adding orders, adding events and retrieving job and order status information.
- The JOC Cockpit REST Web Service provides the API for the JOC Cockpit user interface.
- The JOC Cockpit REST Web Service API is not considered stable as it might change with the requirements of future JOC Cockpit development.
- The JOC Cockpit REST Web Service comes in addition to the JobScheduler REST Web Service that is considered a stable API and a replacement for the retired XML Interface.
- The REST Web Service is used by the JOC Cockpit and by external applications for interaction with a JobScheduler Master:
- The REST Web Service offers access to objects such as jobs, job chains and orders and their respective operations, e.g. to add an order to a job chain.
- Access to the REST Web Service is restricted by permissions, see Authentication and Authorization - Permissions for the JOC Cockpit Web Service
