Which rest api to use for re-running a failed flow-run
My usecase is if some flow-run gets failed in production workspace (which i dont have access to) due to 3rd party rate limiting issue.
We want to run that job again by clicking on "Run again"
But since i dont have access to that workspace, i cannot run that again.
And senior have to run that.
Since they are busy, can i run that script by using the unique run-id of that run with rest api ?
If yes, please let me know the rest api for re-running a particular flow.
PS- dont what to run that script but that particular run instance of that script so input remains same

@rubenf please check
you can't without access to the workspace
i will have token of the user who has access to that workspace
still i cannot ?
so it will like that user is running but i will via postman instead of windmill console
https://app.windmill.dev/openapi.html#/operations/runFlowByPath#Query-Parameters
job_id here means the flow-run id ?
No no ,it means what i want to assign to that new job
So i cannot find "Run again" api in above list
Like i told , i dont want to run the script/flow (for which apis exists), i want to run that run instance again
@rubenf there is no api for this
i checked the Frontend flow also
whenever "Run again", cta is called, a normal run api is called (like it is called for first time), and the payload is passed again from frontend.
I thought there was a different api which just by job-id would call that script/flow again with same payload as of earlier one (instead of passing again)Use this API https://app.windmill.dev/openapi.html#/operations/listCompletedJobs , filtering to get the job you want, get the
args from the result and use the API to run a script/flow. AFAIK, each job is unique, you can't re-run the same instance.@Tiago Serafim this is a good workaround, thanks!
