To request the status of a job, we recommend using projects.locations.jobs.getMetrics with a regional endpoint. Using projects.jobs.getMetrics is not recommended, as you can only request the status of jobs that are running in us-central1.
HTTP request
GET https://dataflow.googleapis.com/v1b3/projects/{projectId}/locations/{location}/jobs/{jobId}/metrics
Return only metric data that has changed since this time. Default is to return all information about all metrics for the job.
Uses RFC 3339, where generated output will always be Z-normalized and uses 0, 3, 6 or 9 fractional digits. Offsets other than "Z" are also accepted. Examples: "2014-10-02T15:01:23Z", "2014-10-02T15:01:23.045123456Z" or "2014-10-02T15:01:23+05:30".
Request body
The request body must be empty.
Response body
If successful, the response body contains an instance of JobMetrics.
