it succeeded but got another error code 1015

“message”: “Robots without credentials cannot run processes that require an interactive session.”

Unable to Start Job from APIGetting "startJobParameters must not be null"
#5

It seems that your process cannot run because your robot is not having credentials. It seems you chose an attended robot, not an unattended one with Windows Credentials.

Before playing and testing the API calls in Postman, check how it is looking the correct API call in the back-end. (right-click on the Processes tab page and go to Inspect → Network → look how it looks the /odata/Jobs/UiPath.Server.Configuration.OData.StartJobs request in Headers and the JSON Payload)

For /odata/Jobs/UiPath.Server.Configuration.OData.StartJobs you need this permission OR.Jobs or OR.Jobs.Write in the External application and Auth Token.

In order to get the ReleaseKey use this endpoint /odata/Releases (OR.Execution or OR.Execution.Read)

In order to get the ROBOT_ID use this endpoint /odata/Robots (OR.Robots or OR.Robots.Read)

If you cannot get your Robots details, use this endpoint:

https://cloud.uipath.com/ORG_NAME/TENANT_NAME/orchestrator_/odata/Robots/UiPath.Server.Configuration.OData.GetConfiguredRobots?$top=1000&$expand=User&$orderby=User/FullName%20asc

In order to get the MACHINE_ID use this endpoint /odata/Machines (OR.Machines or OR.Machines.Read)

Please open your Swagger documentation and check your Orchestrator endpoints and resources:
