Get oozie job information in oozie workflow by REST

Question

How can I find jobs with the parent id is null? I tried 3 methods but none of them worked for me.

/oozie/v1/jobs?jobtype=wf&filter=parent_id=%00 NOT WORKING
/oozie/v1/jobs?jobtype=wf&filter=parent_id=null NOT WORKING
/oozie/v1/jobs?jobtype=wf&external-id=null   NOT WORKING

Answer 1

Oozie does not support filtering jobs for parent_id yet. See the current possibilities for filtering options in the Oozie documentation .

There are plans (since 2014) to add support, see the open jira: OOZIE-1779
