Duplicating a schedule

Since a schedule can be associated to only one task or plan, duplicate this schedule to reuse it with other tasks or plans.

Before you begin

• You must know the ID of the schedule for which you need to simulate events.
• Ensure that the user or the service account to be used have the View permission for at least one workspace in the environment.

Procedure

1. Clone the schedule using the following API request:

   All triggers are duplicated to the new schedule. The new one is renamed with this naming convention: copy of the original schedule name.

   method: POST
   endpoint: https://api.<env>.cloud.talend.com/orchestration/schedules/<scheduleId>
   headers: {
         "Content-Type": "application/json",
         "Authorization": "Bearer <your_personal_access_token_or_service_account_token>"
             }
   payload: N/A
   

Results

Now you can safely perform the following operations:

1. manage changes: clone the schedule assigned to your task or plan, make updates to that copy, simulate events and when ready, unassign the original schedule, assign this copy to your task or plan
2. keep schedule versions for rollback or history purposes
3. reuse and adapt existing schedules for other tasks or plans
