Steps For Airbyte Cloud, obtain an API key from the developer settings; for OSS, use HTTP Basic Auth with the instance credentials. POST to https://api.airbyte.com/v1/jobs with body {"connectionId": "YOUR_CONNECTION_ID", "jobType": "sync"} and the appropriate Authorization header. Capture the jobId from the response. Poll GET https://api.airbyte.com/v1/jobs/{jobId} until status is succeeded or failed. On failure, retrieve logs from the job detail response or the Airbyte UI using the jobId for debugging. Known gotchas The Airbyte Cloud API (api.airbyte.com) differs from the internal OSS API (/api/v1/); do not mix endpoints between deployment types. A connection must be enabled (not disabled/paused) before a manual sync can be triggered; triggering a disabled connection returns an error. Large syncs may take a long time; set a generous polling timeout and implement exponential backoff to avoid hammering the API.
