How to get Talend Management Console task schedules and pause and resume during a maintenance window using the API

[JCLamoure]

This article explains how to obtain a task schedule in the Talend Management Console, how to pause it, and how to resume it. All steps are performed using the API.

In the example, we use the following values:

• The Environment ID: 5b0431e2ee7c2b4082797c73
• Task ID: 698ba125c327f6c153585c67
• %TOKEN% is to be replaced by your actual bearer's token
• The API URL used in each example is set to the EU region, api.eu.cloud.talend.com. Update the region accordingly. 
• The schedule is set from: 1772628971000 to 1775220971000, which is the 3rd of March 2026 to the 3rd of April 2026 in milliseconds since January 1st 1970. Use epochconverter.com to convert date and time to epoch time.

Getting a task schedule

First, we get the scheduling of a task. 

The following Qlik Talend API can be used to retrieve the executions scheduled in a time window using the "from" and "to" parameters: Get scheduled executions 

Get scheduled executions of all types

POST /orchestration/executables/events/search

Example: 

curl -v -X POST ^
-H  "Content-Type: application/json" ^
-H  "Accept: application/json" ^
-H  "Authorization: Bearer %TOKEN%" ^
-d "{\"environmentId\":\"5b0431e2ee7c2b4082797c73\",\"from\":\"1772628971000\",\"to\":\"1775220971000\"}" ^
https://api.eu.cloud.talend.com/orchestration/executables/events/search

The API returns a maximum of 100 entries by default. The parameter "offset" can be used to retrieve the next entries.

Example with "offset": 

curl -v -X POST ^
-H  "Content-Type: application/json" ^
-H  "Accept: application/json" ^
-H  "Authorization: Bearer %TOKEN%" ^
-d "{\"environmentId\":\"5b0431e2ee7c2b4082797c73\",\"from\":\"1772628971000\",\"to\":\"1775220971000\",\"offset\":100}" ^
https://api.eu.cloud.talend.com/orchestration/executables/events/search

To retrieve all the entries, increase the "offset" value to the total value returned by the call that is lower than the limit value.

Pausing a task

Next, we pause the task.

The following Qlik Talend API can be used to pause a task: Pause / Resume a Task

Pause / Resume a Task

PUT /orchestration/executables/tasks/{taskId}/pause

Example:

curl -v -X PUT ^
-H  "Content-Type: application/json" ^
-H  "Accept: application/json" ^
-H  "Authorization: Bearer %TOKEN%" ^
-d "{\"pause\":true,\"pauseContext\":\"Pause during the maintenance window\"}" ^
https://api.eu.cloud.talend.com/orchestration/executables/tasks/698ba125c327f6c153585c67/pause

Resuming a task

We now set the task to resume.

The following Qlik Talend API can be used to resume a task: Pause / Resume a Task

Pause / Resume a Task

PUT /orchestration/executables/tasks/{taskId}/pause

Example:

curl -v -X PUT ^
-H  "Content-Type: application/json" ^
-H  "Authorization: Bearer %TOKEN%" ^
-d "{\"pause\":false}" ^
https://api.eu.cloud.talend.com/orchestration/executables/tasks/698ba125c327f6c153585c67/pause

Pausing and resuming a plan

To pause and resume a plan, the following Qlik Talend API can be used: Pause-Resume Plan executions

Pause-Resume Plan executions

PUT /orchestration/executables/plans/{planId}/pause
