Jobs REST Api - Run a Job that is connected to a git_source

[antoniodavideca]

On Jobs REST API is possible to create a new Job, specifying a git_source.

My question is about triggering the job.

Still on Jobs REST Api is possible to trigger a job using the job_id, but I don't find a way to tell anyhow to Databricks, what's the entry point of the Repository that was specified at creation time.

Am I missing something?

@Antonio Davide Cali​ you can use the runnow API to trigger your run. If you want to change any job values like path or cluster config then you need to use JobUpdate API.

Hello @Prabakar Ammeappin​ 

Yes my issue was that I misunderstood the Docs.

It seems that even if you forward `git_source`, a `task` inside `tasks` field must be created as a `notebook_task`

Ah. Got it. So is your issue resolved or are you looking for further information.
