There is much interest from our customers to be able to create Replicate tasks using scripts and move out of the GUI.

The biggest pain point customers have reported is the manual effort in creating the tasks and selecting tables needed, using the UI.

One of our customers is dealing with about 900+ tables and 140+ tasks and they are very interested in such a feature.

A possible solution which would work is explained below.

1. A configuration file is created in a specified format. This file has the information needed to create a task i.e, task name, table name, endpoint names

2. Use a script / API  to create the tasks in replicate using the above configuration file as input.

It would be a great feature for supporting our customers in automation and faster implementation. Requesting your review.

Hi folks..

We have recently exposed API s in the May release to assist with DTAP such as updating parameters.

Our cloud solution is based on an API first approach and this request will met. I would be happy to provide more details.

While this request certainly makes sense for Enterprise Manager and we have added this to our priority list we don't have a date for delivery.

I will keep this thread updated.

This is very intriguing and I look forward to reviewing the capabilities when released.  The ability to script both creation and management of tasks will help us support Replicate better.
