If you want to update a schedule to run now, you can set the 'next\_datetime' field to achive this. Please see below for both JSON and JSONAPI example.

NOTE: Remember to substitute the token (after Bearer) and the service id (the [SERVICE ID] below) to your own token and service id.

## JSON:

```
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer [API SECURITY TOKEN]"
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" 
  -H "Accept: application/json"
  -X PATCH
  -d "{\"next_datetime\": \"2017-08-15T14:30:00Z\"}"
  https://api.myrapidi.com/api/v2/service/[SERVICE ID]/schedules/19
```

The out-put for this example would be:

```
{
  "code": "G_TEST22_NAV356001",
  "description": "Group TEST22 NAV356001",
  "transfer": "",
  "group": "TEST22",
  "interval": 33,
  "interval_unit": "Day",
  "status": "Ok",

   }
  ],

}
```

  -H "Content-Type: application/vnd.api+json" 
  -H "Accept: application/vnd.api+json"
  -X PATCH
  -d "{\"data"\":{\"type\":\"schedules\",\"attributes\": {\"next_datetime\":\"2017-08-15T15:35:00Z\"}"}}"
