filelisteners

Use the filelisteners resource to create, update, delete, run a file listener, and change the owner of a file listener association from one user to another.

Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services

can use file listeners to monitor specific folders.

Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services

are notified by using a call-back API when new files arrive at a monitored folder and when files in the folder are updated or deleted.

Consider the following when you use the filelisteners resource:

Use JSON format.

Use the following base URL:

<serverUrl>/mftsaas/api/v1/<API name>

Use the following request header format:

<METHOD> <serverUrl>/<URI> HTTP/<HTTP version>
Content-Type: application/json
Accept: application/json
IDS-SESSION-ID: <SessionId>

If you use a tool such as Postman that automatically includes the HTTP version, do not enter the HTTP version in the URL. If the HTTP version appears twice in the URL, the request fails.

Complete the following tasks to run and monitor file listeners:

Send a GET request to view details of a file listener. See View file listener.

Send a POST request to create a file listener. See Create a file listener.

Send a PUT request to update an existing file listener. See Update a file listener.

Send a start POST request to start a file listener job. See Start a file listener.

Send a stop POST request to stop the file listener job manually. See Stop a file listener.

Send a POST request to change the owner a file listener association. See Change owner of a file listener association.
