ArangoDB v3.13 is under development and not released yet. This documentation is not final and potentially incomplete.

HTTP interface for jobs

The HTTP API for jobs lets you access the results of asynchronously executed requests and check the status of such jobs

For an introduction to non-blocking execution of requests and how to create async jobs with the x-arango-async request header, see HTTP request handling in ArangoDB.

Get the results of an async job

PUT /_db/{database-name}/_api/job/{job-id}

Returns the result of an async job identified by job-id if it’s ready.

If the async job result is available on the server, the endpoint returns the original operation’s result headers and body, plus the additional x-arango-async-job-id HTTP header. The result and job are then removed which means that you can retrieve the result exactly once.

If the result is not available yet or if the job is not known (anymore), the additional header is not present and you can tell the status from the HTTP status code.

Path Parameters

database-name* string
The name of a database. Which database you use doesn’t matter as long as the user account you authenticate with has at least read access to this database.
job-id* string
The async job id.

Query Parameters

HTTP Headers

Responses

204 No Content
The job is still in the queue of pending (or not yet finished) jobs. In this case, no x-arango-async-id HTTP header is returned.
400 Bad Request
The job-id is missing in the request or has an invalid value. In this case, no x-arango-async-id HTTP header is returned.
- code* integer
  The HTTP response status code.
- error* boolean
  A flag indicating that an error occurred.
- errorMessage* string
  A descriptive error message.
- errorNum* integer
  The ArangoDB error number for the error that occurred.
404 Not Found
The job cannot be found or has already been deleted, or the result has already been fetched. In this case, no x-arango-async-id HTTP header is returned.
- code* integer
  The HTTP response status code.
- error* boolean
  A flag indicating that an error occurred.
- errorMessage* string
  A descriptive error message.
- errorNum* integer
  The ArangoDB error number for the error that occurred.
default (Varying HTTP status codes)
If the job has finished, you get the result with the headers of the original operation with an additional x-arango-async-id HTTP header. The HTTP status code is also that of the operation that executed asynchronously, which can be a success or error code depending on the outcome of the operation.

Delete async job results

DELETE /_db/{database-name}/_api/job/{job-id}

Deletes either all job results, expired job results, or the result of a specific job. Clients can use this method to perform an eventual garbage collection of job results.

Path Parameters

database-name* string
The name of a database. Which database you use doesn’t matter as long as the user account you authenticate with has at least read access to this database.
job-id* string
The ID of the job to delete. The ID can be:
- all: Deletes all jobs results. Currently executing or queued async jobs are not stopped by this call.
- expired: Deletes expired results. To determine the expiration status of a result, pass the stamp query parameter. stamp needs to be a Unix timestamp, and all async job results created before this time are deleted.
- A numeric job ID: In this case, the call removes the result of the specified async job. If the job is currently executing or queued, it is not aborted.

Query Parameters

stamp number
A Unix timestamp specifying the expiration threshold for when the job-id is set to expired.

  The HTTP response status code.
- error* boolean
  A flag indicating that an error occurred.
- errorMessage* string
  A descriptive error message.
- errorNum* integer
  The ArangoDB error number for the error that occurred.

List async jobs by status or get the status of specific job

GET /_db/{database-name}/_api/job/{job-id}

This endpoint returns either of the following, depending on the specified value for the job-id parameter:

The IDs of async jobs with a specific status
The processing status of a specific async job

Path Parameters

database-name* string
The name of a database. Which database you use doesn’t matter as long as the user account you authenticate with has at least read access to this database.
