The Force Platform Rescan API endpoint allows you to trigger an immediate rescan of the FlowX platform to discover new or updated services, configurations, and components. This is particularly useful when you’ve deployed new services or made configuration changes that need to be immediately recognized by the platform.

This endpoint performs a comprehensive scan of the platform infrastructure and may take some time to complete depending on your platform size and complexity.

Usage Examples

Basic Platform Rescan

const axios = require('axios');

async function forcePlatformRescan() {
  try {
    const response = await axios.get(`${baseUrl}/api/platform/discover`, {
      headers: {
        'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiToken}`,
        'Cache-Control': 'no-cache'
      }
    });
    
    const scanResult = response.data;
    
    console.log(`Rescan completed in ${scanResult.summary.scanDuration}`);
    console.log(`Services: ${scanResult.healthyServices}/${scanResult.totalServices} healthy`);
    
    if (scanResult.summary.issuesDetected > 0) {
      console.warn(`Issues detected: ${scanResult.summary.issuesDetected}`);
      scanResult.summary.recommendations.forEach(rec => {
        console.warn(`- ${rec}`);
      });
    }
    
    return scanResult;
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Rescan failed:', error.response?.data || error.message);
    throw error;
  }
}

When to Use Force Rescan

Service Deployment
Configuration Updates
Troubleshooting

After deploying new servicesUse force rescan when you’ve deployed new microservices or updated existing ones to ensure the platform recognizes all available endpoints and configurations.

# After deployment
kubectl apply -f new-service.yaml
# Then trigger rescan
curl -X GET '/api/platform/discover' -H 'Authorization: Bearer TOKEN'
