Pipeline Trigger using API

[RajPunjabi]

I am facinng error while scheduling/triggering pipeline via api call

and another method i tried is: REST API capabilities for Fabric Data Factory (Preview) - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn

but it is giving me an error stating "Invalid job type"

Hi @RajPunjabi ,

Thank you for posting in the Microsoft Fabric Community.

The "InvalidJobType" error occurs because jobType=Pipeline is not the correct value for triggering a pipeline in Microsoft Fabric.

Try using the correct API call:

POST https://api.fabric.microsoft.com/v1/workspaces/{workspaceId}/items/{pipelineId}/jobs/instances?jobTy...

Authorization: Bearer {accessToken}

Content-Type: application/json

Request Body:

{

  "executionData": {

    "parameters": {}

  }

}

Please ensure that {pipelineId} is a valid pipeline ID from your Fabric workspace. You can verify this in the Fabric UI. Also, confirm that your API token has sufficient permissions (Fabric Admin or Pipeline Operator role).

If the error persists, you can manually trigger the pipeline from the Microsoft Fabric UI as a temporary solution.

I hope this will resolve your issue, if you need any further assistance, feel free to reach out.

Hi @RajPunjabi ,

Thanks for the update! I understand that the "Invalid jobType" error is persisting. Since you’re scheduling the pipeline manually for now.

A few things to check: Ensure that jobType is not included in the request URL, as the API automatically determines it. Also, verify that your {pipelineId} is correct and matches an existing pipeline in your Fabric workspace. Additionally, double-check that your access token has the required permissions (Pipeline Operator or Fabric Admin).
