Run a workflow via API

[michael_klaus]

Hello all

Is it possible to run a XMC Workflow or tasks from external via API? I didn’t find anythin in the API swagger.

The only idea I have is to register the external client as a Syslog client. On the client i would initiate a syslogmessage and then create an alarm for a syslog message that triggers a task.

Hi Mig,

is me have written the XMC_NBI which is not directly supporting kick workflow. Currently I working on a enhanced version supporting WF, but isn’t finalized jet. 
But you can call the NBI like this by your self

Cheers

ok, thanks a lot. I will try it

Yes,

You can make an NBI call that will start the workflow.

Use this package: XMC_NBI from @Markus Nikulski  it contains the code to send the NBI calls with python.

You can easily get the code for what you want to do.
