Schedule jobs
A scheduled job is a job that is scheduled to run at specific moments in time. The Scheduled Jobs plugin allows you to schedule jobs. You can find it in the Admin menu, under Scheduled Jobs. The table at the top shows you all of the scheduled jobs on your server.
You can add a new scheduled job by pressing the green plus button and filling in the form. The
parameters field of the form should be entered as a JSON object, with a name-value pair for each parameter. The format of the JSON depends on the type of the job you're scheduling. The job type determines what will happen when the job is triggered.Downloads and imports data from a CSV file to a single existing table. The file's columns should match the table's attribute names.
name | description |
url | URL to download the file to ingest from |
loader | Loader to use to ingest the file, currently only CSV is allowed |
targetEntityId | ID of the table to import to |
So for example:
{
"url" : "http://filesource.mydomain.example/city.csv",
"loader" : "CSV",
"targetEntityId" : "base_city"
}
