Trigger Evaluation via API like from CLI

[thikoen]

Hello,
I just have a quick question:
When i try "keptn trigger evaluation ..." from CLI everything works as expected and i dont need a starttime for that.
When trying with the API i didnt find a direct trigger event, just the "start-evaluation" type event where i need a time or timeframe. Is it possible to trigger without a starttime like i would do it via CLI? What is the equivalent event type to "trigger evaluation"?
Thanks and kind regards
Thilo

When calling the API to trigger an evaluation, you call the event API endpoint.
${keptn_endpoint}/v1/event

In the payload, (JSON body)
You set the type to trigger the evaluation.
"type": "sh.keptn.event.${stage}.evaluation.triggered"

Here is a sample of a full json payload.

{
"data": {
"teststrategy" : "manual",
"project": "${project}",
"stage": "${stage}",
"service": "${service}",
"monitoring": "${monitoring}",
"labels": {
"buildId" : "${tag}",
"jobname" : "${JOB_NAME}",
"buildNumber": "${BUILD_NUMBER}",
"joburl" : "${BUILD_URL}"
},
"status": "succeeded",
"result": "pass",
"test": {
"start": "${starttime}",
"end" : "${endtime}"
},
"evaluation": {
"start": "${starttime}",
"end": "${endtime}"
},
"image" : "${image}",
"tag" : "${tag}",
},
"datacontenttype": "application/json",
"source": "Jenkins",
"specversion": "1.0",
"type": "sh.keptn.event.${stage}.evaluation.triggered"
}

Thanks,
