Re-Run By RunId

Description

The 'Re-Run' endpoint re-triggers a schedule identified by the runId. The response is a new runId, which is a unique value for the specific run.

The initial runId is typically generated from the Run Schedule Now endpoint, which is then used to rerun the same schedule.

This end point can be used to run a schedule with the exact same versions of flows, sub-flows etc. as the original run of the schedule. From a DevOps perspective this can be used to run the exact same version of flows (test cases) against different versions of the code base, regardless of any changes made to the flows in the mean time.

Examples

http://{controllerMachine}:{controllerPort}/api/v3/run/39f2b3e3-fa24-43e7-a2d6-38815128ac6c/reRun?var1=val1&var2=val2   

In this example the RunId is added as part of the endpoint URL. The value of ‘var1’ and ‘var2’ will be set to ‘val1’ and ‘val2’ respectively, if the variables are defined in the schedule configuration. The schedule variables can be used dynamically in the automation flows, so this is a method to input values and parameters directly to the individual automation flows via the schedule.

A real-life example of this is to trigger a schedule with the URL of the web site, that the automation flow should use in the execution. Creating a URL variable in the schedule and assign different values for the URL will trigger the flows on different web sites.
