Starting October 11, 2024 (Zephyr Enterprise 8.2), the Zephyr Enterprise documentation moved from its current location on Atlassian to a dedicated, standalone Zephyr Enterprise documentation page. Please see: https://support.smartbear.com/zephyr-enterprise/docs/en/zephyr-enterprise/zephyr-user-guide/zephyr-test-automation/api-operations-for-automation-jobs.html

Base URL, authentication, data formats

The operations described below work for both Cloud and On-Premise instances of Zephyr Enterprise. They use the same authentication parameters and data formats that other Zephyr API operations use. For complete information on these, see Zephyr REST API.

Respose codes

The API operations described below use the following response codes:

Response code	Description
200	The operation has been completed successfully.
400	Error in request data or parameters. For instance, the project or job with the specified id doesn’t exist.
401	Authentication error (authentication token is missing).
403	Error. You don’t have permissions to perform this operation.
500	Internal server error.

Delete a job

Use this operation:

POST http://<zephyr-server-address>/flex/services/rest/v3/automation/job/delete

The request body specifies the jobs to be deleted.

Request data

The request body contains identifiers of jobs to be deleted. These are identifiers you get for a job in the response to the request that created that job:

Code Block
{ "ids": [ 1, 2, 3, ... ] }

If you need to delete just one job, specify only one id in the array, for example:

Code Block
{ "ids": [ 12 ] }

Response data

The operation returns 200 OK, if the job or jobs have been deleted successfully. In case of an error, the operation returns one of the error codes.
