Hai Team,

I implemented the vault professional in my customer end, Now they want to use the vault job processor & also want to change the job processor priority settings for the files they need to set priority, by using vault API.

Kindly guide me on this asap.

Thanks in advance.

If the job is already in the queue, the only way to change the priority is to "get" the job, delete it, and re-add it with a different priority

You will need the JobService API Calls GetJobsByDate, DeleteJobById, and AddJob

Hope that helps

Nick

Hi, Do you know how to change the priority before it is in the queue?

Hello,

As far as I remember, there's no such possibility. Unless you're adding a task to the queue using your own application/PowerShell, then you can modify it during the addition.

_vaultConn.WebServiceManager.JobService.AddJob("xxx.UpdateProperties", $"xxxx.UpdateProperties: {assemblyFile.File.Name}", jobParams, 1(priority));

@mateusz_baczewski is correct.

But, according to the recent comments on this Idea from 2012 - https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/vault-ideas/job-queue-priority-settings/idi-p/3543728 - it looks like Autodesk has started looking into Job Queue management
