# Train agent (deprecated)

> **Deprecated.** Sources train as soon as they are created, updated or deleted, so changes take effect immediately and there is nothing to trigger. The call does nothing and always succeeds. Poll `GET /agents/{agentId}/sources/{sourceId}` and read `status` to follow a source, or `GET /agents/{agentId}` for the agent-level `status`.
