Hi guys,

I’m trying to use the Job REST API but the doc is pretty poor at 
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Documentation/UserGuide/Features/XWikiRESTfulAPI#HJobresources

For example to execute a job it says that you only need to pass a “jobType” 
described as "The type of the job to pass to the Job Executor” … errr what’s 
the type and what are the valid values? Would be nice to have some example too.

Also it doesn’t mention any payload that I have to send but I guess I need to 
describe the job that I need to execute. What’s the format?

It also says:

“
Since 9.2RC1 jobs started trough the REST API automatically get their runtime 
context injected with the following REST HTTP request context properties:

        • current wiki
        • current user
        • request URL and parameters
“

What if I want to specify the wiki, user for ex? How do I do that?

At the end there are examples of file format at 
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Documentation/UserGuide/Features/XWikiRESTfulAPI#HFormatsoffiles
 but nothing for jobs.

Could someone help improve the doc so that I can try to use it?

Thanks!
-Vincent
