Reference: request a Pulse occurrence

Start a run for an approved active definition version.

Start a run for an approved active definition version.

Practical procedure

  1. Read the current monitor and retain the intended monitorVersionId.
  2. Send that identifier to /pulse/monitors/{monitor_id}/run with an operation-specific Idempotency-Key.
  3. Treat the 202 response as an occurrence accepted for processing and inspect its later state.

Define an evidence-backed Pulse monitor

Pulse monitors track an objective against selected Knowledge sources. A definition records cadence, timezone, source policy, materiality rule and notification mode. Review and approve the exact definition version before running it. An occurrence records a particular run; it is distinct from the monitor definition and from any resulting email delivery.

Contract example

Developer examples below describe routes on an authorized, configured GoCux control-plane base URL. They are request shapes or operation references, not claims that a particular public hostname exposes the API. Use the workspace for the corresponding human workflow; availability and permissions depend on the actual deployment.

Operation reference for this workflow

POST /pulse/monitors/{monitor_id}/run
Idempotency-Key: <unique-operation-key>

{"monitorVersionId":"monitor-version-id"}

Inspect the result

Inspect occurrence state and available evidence before reporting a change. A new or missing source passage can change the support for a value even when the displayed value is unchanged. Notification mode can be none or email; choosing email is not evidence that delivery is configured or that a message reached its recipient.

What to keep explicit

A stale version or inactive monitor can return 409. Accepted processing is not a completed comparison or a delivered notification.

Handle incomplete and refused work

Creation requires at least one unique Knowledge source identifier. Decisions and transitions use explicit version checks and Idempotency-Key. A stale definition or a monitor that is not active can return 409. A 503 is unavailable monitor storage or materialization, not a statement that nothing changed. Pause or archive intentionally when the monitoring objective ends.
