Can I start a Mitto Job or Sequence from an external application?

@Phil Yes. you can do this with the Mitto API:
You just need the URL of the mitto with the API key from the settings page.

@Phil, here’s the Mitto API endpoint used to start (or kill) a job:

And here’s an example using cURL (with the Mitto URL and API_KEY obscured):

curl -X 'POST' \
  'https://{mitto_url}/api/v2/jobs/1/:actions?API_KEY={api_key}' \
  -H 'accept: application/json' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
  "action": "START"
}'

This cURL command would start job number 1.

So, any external application able to send a POST request could start a Mitto job remotely.
