# API - Operation Start & Stop

04-06-2024

This text provides instructions for performing Start and Stop operations using the Zomro service API. Each operation includes the necessary request parameters, methods, and example requests using curl. Each step is accompanied by a description of the expected result after the operation is performed.  
  
To perform the Stop operation using the API, we use the following function.

URL: 
    
    
    https://api.zomro.com/

Method: POST

Request Body (Form-data):

Parameter | Example Value | Required Parameter | Value Description  
---|---|---|---  
func | instances.fleio_stop | Yes | Function to initiate the stop operation on the instance  
auth | 21fc199...c43f71 | No | Session token. This is one of the authorization options. More details on other options are described [here](https://ispsystem.com/docs/b6c/developer-section/working-with-api/guide-to-ispsystem-software-api)  
out | json | Yes | Response type to expect  
elid | 5116804 | Yes | ID of the service to perform the operation on  
  
Example of performing the Stop operation

For example, we use the service:

URL: 
    
    
    https://api.zomro.com/

Method: POST

Request Body (Form-data):

Parameter | Value  
---|---  
func | instances.fleio_stop  
auth | 21fc199...c43f71  
out | json  
elid | 5116804  
  
Here is an example of a request that can be executed from the console:
    
    
    curl --location 'https://api.zomro.com/' \
    --form 'func="instances.fleio_stop"' \
    --form 'auth="bf15875098100189d4e47484"' \
    --form 'elid="5116804"' \
    --form 'out="json"'

After executing the request, we can see that the server is in the process of stopping.

After the operation is completed, we see that the service is in the "Temporary suspended" status, which means that the service is stopped.
