Using Cloudera Data Engineering API

Update and synchronize stale configurations using Cloudera Data Engineering API in Cloudera Data Services on premises 1.5.5 SP3 and higher releases, when environmental settings, such as Proxy or LDAP in the Cloudera Management Console, or Kerberos in Cloudera Base on premises, change.

Use the ServiceAdmin role and verify if the Cloudera Data Engineering Service is up to date with the Cloudera Data Services on premises configurations.
```
cdpcurl -X GET '[***CDP_ENDPOINT***]/dex/api/v1/cluster/[***CLUSTER-ID***]/config-status' \
     --access_key <ACCESS-KEY> \
    --private_key <PRIVATE-KEY>
```

- To generate an API access key, see Generating an API access key.
- For more information about the cdpcurl command, see cdpcurl page.
- Use -k in the command only if your Cloudera Data Services on premises certificate is not trusted on your machine.

Run the following API to apply the changes to the Cloudera Data Engineering Service and restart the Service:

cdpcurl -X POST '[***CDP_ENDPOINT***]/dex/api/v1/cluster/[***CLUSTER-ID***]/config-restart' \
     --access_key <ACCESS-KEY> \
    --private_key <PRIVATE-KEY>

If all the configurations are correctly applied and synchronized, the Cloudera Data Engineering Service restarts successfully.
If the synchronization fails, retry the synchronization process again. For troubleshooting steps, see Troubleshooting.
