Is it possible to call a Matillion job residing on a different Matillion instance than its being called from?

 

So far, I have looked up the SQS component documentation, not sure if we have a variable to pass the other Matillion server's IP address, username, password etc.. thru the JSON text.

 

I have also tried using a bash script to trigger the job on the other server, no luck. It just tries to execute, but nothing happens, just seems like its keep trying and gets stuck.

 

I am wondering if anyone tried this before? Please advise. thx

Hi @dpatro​

You could use Matillion's API to call a METL job from anywhere (including another METL instance): https://documentation.matillion.com/docs/2976545

Here's also a link to the exact API endpoint that allows you to remotely trigger job executions:

https://documentation.matillion.com/docs/2475544#the-api-run-url

Circle back and let me know if this helps.

Thanks,

I think I ran into this article before, it did not work for me for some reason. I will give another try and post my finding here.
