You can use the RunAJob utility to run jobs or check job status instead of making calls directly through the Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services REST API.
The RunAJob utility runs a JAR file that calls an Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services REST API to run a job. After the job completes, the utility provides the following job details:
•The user who initiated the job.
•The time the job was initiated.
•The run ID for the job.
You can use the RunAJob utility for certain Data Integration and Mass Ingestion asset types.
For Data Integration, you can run jobs for the following tasks and taskflows:
•Mapping tasks
•Synchronization tasks
•Replication tasks
•Masking tasks
•PowerCenter tasks
•Linear taskflows
•Published taskflows
For Mass Ingestion, you can run file ingestion task jobs.
