WMS Print Jobs API (Cloud Print)
Submit cloud print jobs with ZPL, query job status, cancel and retry — the phone-to-hub cloud print relay.
Submit a cloud print job#
A phone web app (no local Hub capability) writes ZPL into print_jobs as queued. The Device Hub on the warehouse workstation subscribes/polls, prints locally on Zebra, and writes back the result. Omit device_id to use the warehouse’s default label printer.
POST /api/wms/print-jobs
{
"device_id": "<uuid>", // optional; default label printer of the warehouse if omitted
"warehouse_id": "<uuid>", // optional; scope for default-printer lookup
"label_kind": "pallet", // required: e.g. pallet | carton | ucc
"ref_type": "pallet", // optional
"ref_id": "<uuid>", // optional
"copies": 2, // optional, default 1
"zpl_content": "^XA\n^FO40,40^FDHello^FS\n^XZ" // required
}Query job status#
GET /api/wms/print-jobs/<job-id>
// -> { ok: true, data: {
// id, status: "queued|printing|done|failed|cancelled",
// error, device_id, label_kind, copies, created_at } }
GET /api/wms/print-jobs?status=queued&warehouse_id=<uuid>&page=1&page_size=50
// print-center queue list (page_size default 50, max 200)Job lifecycle: queued → printing → done, or → failed (with error text), or → cancelled. The Hub claims queued jobs atomically (UPDATE … WHERE status='queued'), so a job cancelled on the phone side is never printed.
Cancel / retry#
PATCH /api/wms/print-jobs/<job-id>
{ "action": "cancel" } // only from queued -> cancelled
{ "action": "retry" } // only from failed -> queued (error cleared)
// conditional update: 0 rows affected means the state already changed -> HTTP 409
