    True

    False

    periodic_run

    Executes the request repeatedly for a set duration, the interval at which it runs should be specified in seconds using the "interval" field. The period over which the request should be executed can be defined by utilizing either the "startTime" and "endTime" fields or the "duration" field.

    { "interval": 5, # seconds

    "duration": "00:30:00", # HH:MM:SS

    { ”request_id”:” 114730344”}

  • Status Codes:

    • 200 – Ok

    • 400 – Bad request (bad or missing parameters)

  • Description: Deletes and cancels future requests from the plugin.

  • URL: POST ufmRestV2/plugin/sysinfo/delete/<request_id>

  • Request Data: N/A

  • Response: N/A

  • Status Codes:

    • 200 – Ok

    • 400 – Request ID not found

  • Description: This plugin allows you to cancel and delete future requests to the plugin, but the request ID is stored for later reactivation. To reactivate the sysinfo request, you need to call the Update API using the same request ID and specify the new duration for the request. You can refer to the Update Schedule Request

  • API for more information.

  • URL: GET ufmRestV2/plugin/sysinfo/cancel/<request_id>

  • Request: N/A

  • Response: N/A

  • Status Codes:

    • 200 – Ok

    • 400 – Request ID not found

  • Description: This plugin allows you to update an existing schedule request with a new duration. A duration flag can be used instead of the endTime flag (which is identical to the schedule_run Request API flags). Instead of using the endTime flag, you can use a duration flag which calculates the required end time by adding the API duration to the current time. The plugin then extends the requests for the calculated duration time. If the calculated duration is shorter than the existing duration, the plugin cancels future requests to match the new duration. If a request is cancelled, the plugin restarts and initiates future calls for it.
