Here is an example Job (job.json):
> {
>        "job": {
>                        "tasks": 1,
>                        "name": "test",
>                        "nodes": 1,
>                        "current_working_directory": "/tmp/",
>                        "environment": {
>                                "PATH": "/bin:/usr/bin/:/usr/local/bin/",
>                                "LD_LIBRARY_PATH": "/lib/:/lib64/:/usr/local/lib"
>                        }
>        },
>        "script": "#!/bin/bash\nsrun hostname"
> }
The "script" field is where the contents of the script are to be placed. In the above example, it is a pretty simple script but anything sbatch accepts should be accepted by slurmrestd.

Example call with curl:
> export $(scontrol token lifespan=99999)
> curl -s -H X-SLURM-USER-NAME:$(whoami) -H X-SLURM-USER-TOKEN:$SLURM_JWT -X POST 'http://rest/slurm/v0.0.35/job/submit' -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d @job.json
.

The SLUG slides are little out of date. I have attached the more recent PEARC20 presentation slides. Slide 30 has an example too.

The main documentation is here:

I have been adding to it as we get more questions from sites. Questions are welcome.

That's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks! I'll be sure to let you know if I have any more questions.
