Update connector scheduling API

This functionality is in beta and is subject to change. The design and code is less mature than official GA features and is being provided as-is with no warranties. Beta features are not subject to the support SLA of official GA features.

Updates the scheduling configuration of a connector.

To get started with Connector APIs, check out our tutorial.

Request

PUT _connector/<connector_id>/_scheduling

Prerequisites

To sync data using self-managed connectors, you need to deploy the Elastic connector service. on your own infrastructure. This service runs automatically on Elastic Cloud for Elastic managed connectors.
The connector_id parameter should reference an existing connector.

Path parameters

<connector_id>: (Required, string)

Request body

scheduling: (Required, object) The scheduling configuration for the connector. This configuration determines frequency of synchronization operations for the connector.

The scheduling configuration includes the following attributes, each represented as a ScheduleConfig object. If the scheduling object does not include all schedule types, only those provided will be updated; the others will remain unchanged.

access_control (Optional, ScheduleConfig object) Defines the schedule for synchronizing access control settings of the connector.
full (Optional, ScheduleConfig object) Defines the schedule for a full content syncs.
incremental (Optional, ScheduleConfig object) Defines the schedule for incremental content syncs.

Each ScheduleConfig object includes the following sub-attributes:

enabled (Required, boolean) A flag that enables or disables the scheduling.
interval (Required, string) A CRON expression representing the sync schedule. This expression defines the grequency at which the sync operations should occur. It must be provided in a valid CRON format.

Response codes

200: Connector scheduling field was successfully updated.
400: The connector_id was not provided or the request payload was malformed.
404 (Missing resources): No connector matching connector_id could be found.

Examples

The following example updates the scheduling property for the connector with ID my-connector:

resp = client.connector.update_scheduling(
    connector_id="my-connector",
    scheduling={
        "access_control": {
            "enabled": True,
            "interval": "0 10 0 * * ?"
        },
        "full": {
            "enabled": True,
            "interval": "0 20 0 * * ?"
        },
        "incremental": {
            "enabled": False,
            "interval": "0 30 0 * * ?"
        }
    },
)
print(resp)

response = client.connector.update_scheduling(
  connector_id: 'my-connector',
  body: {
    scheduling: {
      access_control: {
        enabled: true,
        interval: '0 10 0 * * ?'
      },
      full: {
        enabled: true,
        interval: '0 20 0 * * ?'
      },
      incremental: {
        enabled: false,
        interval: '0 30 0 * * ?'
      }
    }
  }
)
puts response

const response = await client.connector.updateScheduling({
  connector_id: "my-connector",
  scheduling: {
    access_control: {
      enabled: true,
      interval: "0 10 0 * * ?",
    },
    full: {
      enabled: true,
      interval: "0 20 0 * * ?",
    },
    incremental: {
      enabled: false,
      interval: "0 30 0 * * ?",
    },
  },
});
console.log(response);

PUT _connector/my-connector/_scheduling
{
    "scheduling": {
        "access_control": {
            "enabled": true,
            "interval": "0 10 0 * * ?"
        },
        "full": {
            "enabled": true,
            "interval": "0 20 0 * * ?"
        },
        "incremental": {
            "enabled": false,
            "interval": "0 30 0 * * ?"
        }
    }
}

{
    "result": "updated"
}

The following example updates full sync schedule only, other schedule types remain unchanged:

resp = client.connector.update_scheduling(
    connector_id="my-connector",
    scheduling={
        "full": {
            "enabled": True,
            "interval": "0 10 0 * * ?"
        }
    },
)
print(resp)

const response = await client.connector.updateScheduling({
  connector_id: "my-connector",
  scheduling: {
    full: {
      enabled: true,
      interval: "0 10 0 * * ?",
    },
  },
});
console.log(response);

PUT _connector/my-connector/_scheduling
{
    "scheduling": {
        "full": {
            "enabled": true,
            "interval": "0 10 0 * * ?"
        }
    }
}

{
    "result": "updated"
}
