Monitor sources dataflows using the Flow Service API
This tutorial covers the steps for monitoring flow run data for completeness, errors, and metrics using the .
NOTE
This tutorial requires you to have the ID value of a valid dataflow. If you do not have a valid dataflow ID, select your connector of choice from the sources overview and follow the steps outlined to createa dataflow before attempting this tutorial.
Getting started
This tutorial also requires you to have a working understanding of the following components of ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓƵ Experience Platform:
- Sources: Experience Platform allows data to be ingested from various sources while providing you with the ability to structure, label, and enhance incoming data using Platform services.
- Sandboxes: Experience Platform provides virtual sandboxes which partition a single Platform instance into separate virtual environments to help develop and evolve digital experience applications.
Using Platform APIs
For information on how to successfully make calls to Platform APIs, see the guide on getting started with Platform APIs.
Monitor dataflows
To see the status of your dataflow, make a GET request to the Flow Service API, while providing your dataflow’s corresponding flow ID.
API format
GET /runs?property=flowId=={FLOW_ID}
Parameter
Description
{FLOW_ID}The unique
id value for the dataflow you want to monitor.Request
The following request retrieves the specifications for an existing dataflow.
curl -X GET \
'https://platform.adobe.io/data/foundation/flowservice/runs?property=flowId==c9cef9cb-c934-4467-8ef9-cbc934546741' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer {ACCESS_TOKEN}' \
-H 'x-api-key: {API_KEY}' \
-H 'x-gw-ims-org-id: {ORG_ID}' \
-H 'x-sandbox-name: {SANDBOX_NAME}'
Response
A successful response returns details regarding your flow run, including information about its creation date, source and target connections, as well as the flow run’s unique identifier (id).

Property
Description
itemsContains a single payload of metadata associated with your specific flow run.
metricsDefines characteristics of the data in the flow run.
activitiesDefines how the data is transformed.
durationSummaryDefines the start and end time of the flow run.

Next steps
By following this tutorial, you have retrieved metrics and error information on your dataflow using the Flow Service API. You can now continue to monitor your dataflow, depending on your ingestion schedule, to track its status and ingestion rates.
