# Jobs HTTP API
The `/jobs` endpoints are used to query for and interact with jobs.
## List Jobs
This endpoint lists all known jobs in the system registered with Nomad.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| ------ | ------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `GET` | `/v1/jobs` | `application/json` |
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
[blocking queries](/api/index.html#blocking-queries) and
[required ACLs](/api/index.html#acls).
| Blocking Queries | ACL Required |
| ---------------- | --------------------------- |
| `YES` | `namespace:list-jobs` |
### Parameters
- `prefix` `(string: "")` - Specifies a string to filter jobs on based on
an index prefix. This is specified as a querystring parameter.
### Sample Request
```text
$ curl \
https://nomad.rocks/v1/jobs
```
```text
$ curl \
https://nomad.rocks/v1/jobs?prefix=team
```
### Sample Response
```json
[
{
"ID": "example",
"ParentID": "",
"Name": "example",
"Type": "service",
"Priority": 50,
"Status": "pending",
"StatusDescription": "",
"JobSummary": {
"JobID": "example",
"Summary": {
"cache": {
"Queued": 1,
"Complete": 1,
"Failed": 0,
"Running": 0,
"Starting": 0,
"Lost": 0
}
},
"Children": {
"Pending": 0,
"Running": 0,
"Dead": 0
},
"CreateIndex": 52,
"ModifyIndex": 96
},
"CreateIndex": 52,
"ModifyIndex": 93,
"JobModifyIndex": 52
}
]
```
## Create Job
This endpoint creates (aka "registers") a new job in the system.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| ------- | ------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `POST` | `/v1/jobs` | `application/json` |
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
[blocking queries](/api/index.html#blocking-queries) and
[required ACLs](/api/index.html#acls).
| Blocking Queries | ACL Required |
| ---------------- | ------------ |
| `NO` | `namespace:submit-job`
`namespace:sentinel-override` if `PolicyOverride` set |
### Parameters
- `Job` `(Job: )` - Specifies the JSON definition of the job.
- `EnforceIndex` `(bool: false)` - If set, the job will only be registered if the
passed `JobModifyIndex` matches the current job's index. If the index is zero,
the register only occurs if the job is new. This paradigm allows check-and-set
style job updating.
- `JobModifyIndex` `(int: 0)` - Specifies the `JobModifyIndex` to enforce the
current job is at.
- `PolicyOverride` `(bool: false)` - If set, any soft mandatory Sentinel policies
will be overriden. This allows a job to be registered when it would be denied
by policy.

## Update Existing Job
This endpoint registers a new job or updates an existing job.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| ------- | -------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `POST` | `/v1/job/:job_id` | `application/json` |
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
[blocking queries](/api/index.html#blocking-queries) and
[required ACLs](/api/index.html#acls).
| Blocking Queries | ACL Required |

`namespace:sentinel-override` if `PolicyOverride` set |
### Parameters
- `:job_id` `(string: )` - Specifies the ID of the job (as specified in
the job file during submission). This is specified as part of the path.
- `Job` `(Job: )` - Specifies the JSON definition of the job.
- `EnforceIndex` `(bool: false)` - If set, the job will only be registered if the
passed `JobModifyIndex` matches the current job's index. If the index is zero,
the register only occurs if the job is new. This paradigm allows check-and-set
style job updating.
- `JobModifyIndex` `(int: 0)` - Specifies the `JobModifyIndex` to enforce the
current job is at.

will be overriden. This allows a job to be registered when it would be denied
by policy.

{
"Job": {
// ...

"EnforceIndex": true,
"JobModifyIndex": 4
}

#### Field Reference
- `Diff` - A diff structure between the submitted job and the server side
version. The top-level object is a Job Diff which contains Task Group Diffs,
which in turn contain Task Diffs. Each of these objects then has Object and
Field Diff structures embedded.
- `NextPeriodicLaunch` - If the job being planned is periodic, this field will
include the next launch time for the job.
- `CreatedEvals` - A set of evaluations that were created as a result of the
dry-run. These evaluations can signify a follow-up rolling update evaluation
or a blocked evaluation.
- `JobModifyIndex` - The `JobModifyIndex` of the server side version of this job.
- `FailedTGAllocs` - A set of metrics to understand any allocation failures that
occurred for the Task Group.
- `Annotations` - Annotations include the `DesiredTGUpdates`, which tracks what
- the scheduler would do given enough resources for each Task Group.
## Force New Periodic Instance
This endpoint forces a new instance of the periodic job. A new instance will be
created even if it violates the job's
[`prohibit_overlap`](/docs/job-specification/periodic.html#prohibit_overlap)
settings. As such, this should be only used to immediately run a periodic job.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| ------- | -------------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `POST` | `/v1/job/:job_id/periodic/force` | `application/json` |
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
[blocking queries](/api/index.html#blocking-queries) and
[required ACLs](/api/index.html#acls).
| Blocking Queries | ACL Required |
| ---------------- | ------------ |
| `NO` | `none` |
### Parameters
- `:job_id` `(string: )` - Specifies the ID of the job (as specified in
the job file during submission). This is specified as part of the path.
### Sample Request
```text
$ curl \
--request POST \
https://nomad.rocks/v1/job/my-job/periodic/force
```
### Sample Response
```json
{
"EvalCreateIndex": 7,
"EvalID": "57983ddd-7fcf-3e3a-fd24-f699ccfb36f4"
}
```
## Stop a Job
This endpoint deregisters a job, and stops all allocations part of it.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| -------- | -------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `DELETE` | `/v1/job/:job_id` | `application/json` |
The table below shows this endpoint's support for

| `NO` | `none` |
### Parameters
- `:job_id` `(string: )` - Specifies the ID of the job (as specified in
the job file during submission). This is specified as part of the path.
- `Purge` `(bool: false)` - Specifies that the job should stopped and purged
immediately. This means the job will not be queryable after being stopped. If
not set, the job will be purged by the garbage collector.
### Sample Request
```text
$ curl \
--request DELETE \
https://nomad.rocks/v1/job/my-job?purge=true
```
### Sample Response
```json
{
"EvalID": "d092fdc0-e1fd-2536-67d8-43af8ca798ac",
"EvalCreateIndex": 35,
"JobModifyIndex": 34,
}
