Try using the below CURL commands to enable/disable -

curl -k -u admin:password https://localhost:8089/servicesNS/nobody/-/apps/local/<your_app_name>/disable -X POST
curl -k -u admin:password https://localhost:8089/servicesNS/nobody/-/apps/local/<your_app_name>/enable -X POST

However, it will make the change only on the search head where you issue the CURL command. You may have to run the same command on all SHC peers.

I had tried this, but didn't work. Being a configuration it requires a restart for the state change to reflect.
