---------------------------------------

             Summary: Add documentation around save point with cancel lifecycle through REST
                 Key: FLINK-12333
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-12333
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Runtime / REST
    Affects Versions: 1.8.0
            Reporter: Vishal Santoshi


Exit code 2 seen ( after 5 minutes ) when 
{code:java}
curl  --header "Content-Type: application/json" --request POST --data '{"target-directory":"***********","cancel-job":true}'    https://***************/jobs/00000000000000000000000000000000/savepoints{code}
It seems that when a REST call is 

"Triggered the cancel with savepoint command from via the REST call. This command is an asynchronous operation which produces a result (the savepoint path). In order to deliver asynchronous results to the caller, Flink waits before shutting down until they are delivered or until it times out after 5 minutes."

 

That implies that one has to execute 
{code:java}
curl  --request GET   https://**********/jobs/00000000000000000000000000000000/savepoints/[Request_id]
{code}
on the request_id returned by the first call ( within 5 minutes ) , for a clean exit ( code 0 ) 

 

Please add this life cycle in flink documentation , in all probability here [https://ci.apache.org/projects/flink/flink-docs-stable/monitoring/rest_api.html#jobs-jobid-savepoints]
