execute_watch(*, id=None, action_modes=None, alternative_input=None, debug=None, error_trace=None, filter_path=None, human=None, ignore_condition=None, pretty=None, record_execution=None, simulated_actions=None, trigger_data=None, watch=None, body=None)

Forces the execution of a stored watch.

https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/8.13/watcher-api-execute-watch.html

Parameters:
  • id (str | None) – Identifier for the watch.

  • action_modes (Mapping[str, Literal['execute', 'force_execute', 'force_simulate', 'simulate', 'skip'] | str] | None) – Determines how to handle the watch actions as part of the watch execution.

  • alternative_input (Mapping[str, Any] | None) – When present, the watch uses this object as a payload instead of executing its own input.

  • debug (bool | None) – Defines whether the watch runs in debug mode.

  • ignore_condition (bool | None) – When set to true, the watch execution uses the always condition. This can also be specified as an HTTP parameter.

  • record_execution (bool | None) – When set to true, the watch record representing the watch execution result is persisted to the .watcher-history index for the current time. In addition, the status of the watch is updated, possibly throttling subsequent executions. This can also be specified as an HTTP parameter.

  • simulated_actions (Mapping[str, Any] | None) –

  • trigger_data (Mapping[str, Any] | None) – This structure is parsed as the data of the trigger event that will be used during the watch execution

  • watch (Mapping[str, Any] | None) – When present, this watch is used instead of the one specified in the request. This watch is not persisted to the index and record_execution cannot be set.

  • error_trace (bool | None) –

  • filter_path (str | Sequence[str] | None) –

  • human (bool | None) –

  • pretty (bool | None) –

  • body (Dict[str, Any] | None) –

Return type:

ObjectApiResponse[Any]
