+### Submitting Programs
+
+It is possible to upload, run, and list Flink programs via the REST APIs
and web frontend.
+
+#### Run a Program (POST)
+
+Send a `POST` request to `/jars/:jarid/run`. The `jarid` parameter is the
file name of the program JAR in the configured web frontend upload directory
(configuration key `jobmanager.web.upload.dir`).
+
+You can specify the following query parameters (all optional):
+
+- **Program arguments**: `program-args=arg1 arg2 arg3`
+- **Main class to execute**: `entry-class=EntryClassName.class`
+- **Default parallelism**: `parallelism=4`
+- **Savepoint path to restore from**:
`savepointPath=hdfs://path/to/savepoint`
+- **Ignore unmapped savepoint state**: `ignoreUnmappedState=true`
+
+If the call succeeds, you will get a response with the ID of the submitted
job.
+
+**Example:** Run program with a savepoint
+

+POST:
/jars/MyProgram.jar/run?savepointPath=/my-savepoints/savepoint-1bae02a80464&ignoreUnmappedState=true
