Lucidworks Custom connector get last job time

Question

Need to get last successful job runtime in custom java connector.

Is it possible to get Last run start value, or any other way to store and retrieve last job run time?

Tried to get last job time by accessing history api service. curl -u user:pass fusion-host:6764/api/jobs/datasource:movies-db/history

Is there any other way to get values from connector itself?

https://doc.lucidworks.com/fusion-server/4.0/reference/api/jobs-api.html#get-the-job-history-for-a-datasource

Based on these docs, the response should be similar to this. You would use startTime for last run start

[ {
  "resource" : "datasource:movies-db",
  "startTime" : "2017-05-17T21:01:46.743Z",
  "endTime" : "2017-05-17T21:02:05.720Z",
  "status" : "success"
}, {
  "resource" : "datasource:movies-db",
  "startTime" : "2017-05-17T20:58:10.503Z",
  "endTime" : "2017-05-17T20:58:42.020Z",
  "status" : "success"
} ]
