Response body

When you send a POST request to export bulk assets from the catalog, the API triggers a job to export the assets.

The following example shows the response of the POST request to export bulk assets from the catalog:

{
"jobId": "6a5b273a-f816-4346-a8ae-f2d27f3e3240",
"trackingURI": "/data360/observable/v1/jobs/6a5b273a-f816-4346-a8ae-f2d27f3e3240?expandChildren=OUTPUT-PROPERTIES",
"outputURI": "/data360/observable/v1/jobs/6a5b273a-f816-4346-a8ae-f2d27f3e3240/outputProperties/files/Export_File"
}

The following table describes the response body parameters for the export API request:

Parameter	Description
jobId	Unique ID of the export job that the request triggers.
trackingURI	Job tracking URI that you can use to send a GET request to monitor the status of the export job.
outputURI	Output file URI that you can use to send a GET request to download the exported file.

For more information about using the jobs API to monitor the status of jobs, see Monitor jobs. Once the job completes, you can send a GET request to download the exported file using the outputURI. The exported file is a Microsoft Excel file in the .xslx format.
