Jobs
About jobs
A job is an automated process for deploying one or more components from the Web Portal to a number of devices, either immediately or at a scheduled time.
When a quick job is set up or a job is scheduled, the Web Portal signals the targeted devices that a job needs to be run. The Agent will download the job and run the script.
Jobs can be scheduled for individual devices, sites, filters or groups. You cannot run a job at the account level. The following operating systems support running jobs:
- Windows
- macOS
- Linux
Quick jobs
A quick job allows you to immediately deploy one component without having to schedule the job. Refer to Quick jobs in the current UI and Quick jobs - New UI in the New UI.
Job scheduler
A scheduled job allows you to run multiple components immediately or at a scheduled time. To learn more, refer to Job scheduler in the current UI and Scheduled jobs - New UI in the New UI.
