# Trigger a CAQH or NPDB pipeline run for a workflow

`POST /monitoring-workflows/{workflowId}/pipeline-runs`

Synchronously executes a data-fetch pipeline run for the specified monitoring workflow and returns once the run completes — the 200 response reflects actual completion, not just enqueue acknowledgment. Only `CAQH` and `NPDB` are valid values for `pipelineName`; `CREDENTIALING_WORKFLOW` appears in the shared pipeline-name enum but is explicitly rejected for monitoring workflows and returns 400. The tenant must have the corresponding pipeline (CAQH or NPDB) configured, or the run fails. Requires `MONITORING_WORKFLOW_PIPELINE_TRIGGER`. The `tenant-id` header is mandatory. Returns 404 when the workflow is not found.

## Path parameters

- `workflowId` string, required

## Other responses

- `400` — Invalid request data, e.g. pipelineName is CREDENTIALING_WORKFLOW or otherwise unsupported for monitoring workflows
- `401` — Unauthorized - Authentication required
- `403` — Forbidden - User does not have required permissions
- `404` — Monitoring workflow not found
- `500` — Internal Server Error - An unexpected error occurred
