Create a new job

Request

Creates a new job that runs one or more analysis checks over the given list of plot_ids. Use the checks array to select which analyses run; if it is omitted, a single eudr check is run by default. The available check types are listed in GET /v3/discovery/capabilities.

Warning: This operation will consume user tokens. Tokens are reserved when the job is created; tokens reserved for plots that fail to complete analysis are refunded when the job settles.

Security
BearerAuth
Headers
Authorizationstring

Authorization header with a Bearer token, formatted as 'Bearer [JWT]' where [JWT] is the JSON Web Token used for user authentication and authorization.

Example:Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.your-payload-here.signature
X-Dry-Runboolean

Optional boolean. When true, runs the job in dry-run mode: skips token consumption and heavy compute and returns a simulated analysis with dummy visualization. Use dry-run to preview the token cost of a job before committing tokens.

Example:true
Bodyapplication/jsonrequired

Details of the job to create

job_namestring

Name of the job

Example:"Planting season analysis for Q1"
plot_idsArray of stringsrequired

List of plot IDs that belong to the user to be analyzed in the job. Up to 10,000 plots per job; each plot ID can appear only once per job

Example:
[
  "ef6f5727-307f-4e9d-abcb-74a8b6af0366",
  "asd9632d-b589-4e05-9c8b-58fed1f9823a3"
]
notesstring

Additional notes about the job

Example:"Analysis for initial planting"
additional_infoobject

Additional information about the job as key-value pairs, where keys and values are both strings

Example:
{
  "soilQuality": "High",
  "irrigationType": "Drip"
}
checksArray of objects(JobCheckConfig)

Optional list of check definitions to run for this job. If omitted or empty, a single 'eudr' check is run by default. Each check names an analysis capability from GET /v3/discovery/capabilities and can carry its own configuration. Multiple checks can be combined in one job; each check produces its own analysis run per plot. Duplicate entries with the same type are collapsed — the first occurrence wins and the job is priced once per distinct check.

Example:
[
  {
    "type": "eudr",
    "config": { … },
    "per_plot": { … }
  },
  {
    "type": "soil_moisture"
  },
  {
    "type": "visual_verification",
    "config": { … }
  }
]
