Mistral API v2.0
This API describes the ways of interacting with Mistral service via HTTP protocol using Representational State Transfer concept (ReST).
Media Types
Currently this API relies on JSON to represent states of REST resources.
Error States
The common [HTTP Response Status Codes](https://github.com/for-GET/know-your-http-well/blob/master/status-codes.md) are used.
Application Root [/]
Application Root provides links to all possible API methods for Mistral. URLs for other resources described below are relative to Application Root.
API v2 Root [/v2/]
All API v2 urls are relative to API v2 root.
Workbook [/workbooks/{name}]
See what Workbooks are in Mistral DSL v2 Specification.
A Workbook has the following attributes:
- id
- name
- tags
- definition
- created_at
- updated_at
name is immutable. tags is a list of values associated with a workbook that a user can use to group workbooks by some criteria (deployment workbooks, Big Data processing workbooks etc.). Note that name and tags get inferred from workbook definition when Mistral service receives a POST request. So they can't be changed in another way.
URL Parameters
- name - Workbook name.
Model

A Workflow has the following attributes:

Execution [/executions/{id}]
A particular workflow execution.
An Execution has the following attributes:
- id
- workflow_name
- params
- input
- output
- state
- created_at
- updated_at
Note that id is immutable and automatically assigned by Mistral at creation time. params define workflow type specific parameters. For example, reverse workflow takes one parameter 'task_name' that defines a target task. input is a JSON structure containing workflow input values. output is a workflow output. state can take one of the following values:
- IDLE
- RUNNING
- SUCCESS
- ERROR
- PAUSED
- DELAYED
URL Parameters
- id (string) - Execution id.

Task [/tasks/{id}]
When a workflow starts Mistral creates an execution. It in turn consists of a set of tasks. So Task is an instance of a task described in a Workflow that belongs to a particular execution.
A Task has the following attributes:
- id
- name
- wf_name
- execution_id
- result
- input
- output
- created_at
- updated_at
"state" can take one of the following values:
- IDLE
- RUNNING
- SUCCESS
- ERROR
URL Parameters
- id (string) - Task id.

Retrieve Task list [GET]
- URL: /tasks
- Status: 200
- Returns: Task list
Response example
{ "tasks": [ { "id": "12434234", "name": "create_vm", "workflow_name": "my_workflow", "execution_id": "12304593450234", "input": { "image_id": "1-2-3-4" }, "state": "SUCCESS", "created_at": "2014-09-25 03:35:36", "updated_at": "2014-09-25 03:35:36" }, { "id": "12434235", "name": "associate_ip", "workflow_name": "my_workflow", "execution_id": "12304593450234", "input": { "vm_id": "1-2-3-4" }, "state": "RUNNING", "created_at": "2014-09-25 03:35:36", "updated_at": "2014-09-25 03:35:36" }, ] }
Retrieve a single task [GET]
- URL: /tasks/{task-id}
- Status: 200

Update a task [PUT]
The only two sensible fields to update are "state" and "result". When using asynchronous processing they can be used to notify Mistral with task state and result.
- URL: /tasks/{task-id}
- Status: 200
- Returns: Task
Request example
{ "id": "12434234", "state": "ERROR" }
