Pause / Resume API

Control processing at both the individual source level and system-wide. Pausing prevents new extraction and indexing work from starting; resuming re-queues any paused sources for recovery.

Eight endpoints are split across two path prefixes:

• Per-source endpoints are mounted at /api/v1/sources
• System-wide endpoints are mounted at /api/v1/system/processing

Per-Source Pause / Resume

Pause Single Source

POST /api/v1/sources/{source_id}/pause

Pause processing for a single source. The source will not be picked up for extraction or recovery until it is resumed.

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/v1/sources/src_abc123/pause \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"reason": "Reviewing extraction settings"}'

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
source_id	string (path)	Yes	--	Source ID
reason	string (body)	No	null	Optional human-readable reason (max 500 characters)

Response 200 OK

{
  "source_id": "src_abc123",
  "paused": true
}

---

Resume Single Source

POST /api/v1/sources/{source_id}/resume

Resume a paused source and immediately trigger recovery so it re-queues for any pending processing.

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/v1/sources/src_abc123/resume

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
source_id	string (path)	Yes	Source ID

Response 200 OK

{
  "source_id": "src_abc123",
  "paused": false
}

---

Bulk Pause Sources

POST /api/v1/sources/pause

Pause multiple sources in a single request. Returns the count of sources successfully paused.

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/v1/sources/pause \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "source_ids": ["src_abc123", "src_def456"],
    "reason": "Maintenance window"
  }'

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
source_ids	string[] (body)	Yes	--	List of source IDs to pause (1--500 items)
reason	string (body)	No	null	Optional reason applied to all sources (max 500 characters)

Response 200 OK

{
  "count": 2
}

---

Bulk Resume Sources

POST /api/v1/sources/resume

Resume multiple sources in a single request. Each resumed source immediately triggers recovery.

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/v1/sources/resume \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "source_ids": ["src_abc123", "src_def456"]
  }'

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
source_ids	string[] (body)	Yes	List of source IDs to resume (1--500 items)

Response 200 OK

{
  "count": 2
}

System-Wide Pause / Resume

These endpoints affect all processing across the entire database, not just individual sources.

Pause System Processing

  -d '{"reason": "Scheduled maintenance"}'

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
reason	string (body)	No	null	Optional reason for the pause (max 500 characters)

Response 200 OK

{
  "paused": true

Resume System Processing

POST /api/v1/system/processing/resume

Resume system-wide processing after a system pause.

curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/v1/system/processing/resume

Response 200 OK

{
  "paused": false
}

Get System Pause Status

GET /api/v1/system/processing/status

Returns the current system-wide pause state, including when the pause started and the reason if provided.

Response 200 OK -- SystemPauseStatusResponse

{
  "paused": true,
  "paused_at": "2026-04-13T09:00:00",
