Configuring a confluence job

Question

I have a recurring job (implements JobRunner) that I want to parameterize. I have written the job, tested it, and it works (with default parameters). I have also written and tested an Admin screen to collect my parameters. My question is relatively straightforward:

What is the best best way to communicate my parameters to the job?

Hello @robert_egan_305 !

As I understand, you are developing a Confluence Plugin and need to pass some variable values to your job.

You can use the interface called JobRunnerRequest to send the values to your JobRunner call. Since the runJob method takes the JobRunnerRequest type as a valid value for the parameter, you can send the necessary info there.

You can check more information here:

* [Atlassian Scheduler API] Interface SchedulerService
* [Atlassian Scheduler API] Interface JobRunner
* [Atlassian Scheduler API] Interface JobRunnerRequest

Development is not my specialty, so my help is limited. But, you can surely reach out to our sister community, the Developer Community! You can send your question here:

* [Atlassian Developer Community] Confluence Collection

I hope this helps you!
