Library job activity

The "Library job activity" page displays the latest execution for Automation Services jobs that are saved in the Spotfire library.

These job executions may have been initiated in any of the following ways:

By a scheduled job that was created in the Spotfire administration interface.
By a user running the scheduled job, outside of its schedule, from the "Scheduled jobs" page.
By a user running the job from the Automation Services Job Builder or Client Job Sender.
By using the create-scheduled jobs command.
By a schedule that was created in Windows Task Scheduler for running the job on the Client Job Sender.
By using the public API.

For information about the Job Builder or Client Job Sender, see the Automation Services User's Guide.

To view previous executions of a scheduled job, click in the job's row. This displays the job's History page.

By default job activity older than a week is deleted. If your organization runs many Automation Services jobs, you may want to reduce the default time period for deleting job history items from the database; for instructions, see Changing how often the scheduled job history is cleared. You may want to consider other options for tracking history, such as action logging; for more information, see Action logs and system monitoring. You can also clear individual job activities or large numbers of them by using the Actions list near the top of the page.

You can use the Initiated by me quick filter to view only activities that you scheduled or initiated directly. In the case of a scheduled job that was created in the Spotfire administration interface, an activity will appear in this filtered view if one of the following is true:

You scheduled the activity in the Spotfire administration interface and no other user has been the last to edit the scheduled job.
You were the last person to edit a scheduled job that was created in the Spotfire administration interface (by any user).

Note: You can apply additional quick filters, such as Failed jobs, to the job activity list by clicking the filter names.
