Automation API for publishing jobs to the Spotfire Library and scheduling them as well

It will be helpful if we could call an API that would assist in publishing job definitions to the Spotfire Library as well as scheduling the published jobs. Alternatively, an API allowing scheduling of job definition xml files would also suffice.

    I would like to have the ability to control Spotfire Sever "Scheduling & Routing" through an API. I need to be able to orchestrate a Rule to update a Spotfire project immediately after an AWS Redshift dataset has been refreshed. Being able to initiate a Spotfire Server Reload activity on an Analysis file saved in our on-prem Spotfire Server Library, using a Python script running on AWS, would be a huge advantage; currently, I can only schedule the refresh or manually start the refresh through the Spotfire Server UI. Power BI's API currently has the ability to do something very similar to this via their "Enahnced API".
