Running jobs

Once a job has been successfully created, it can be executed. Running a job will perform each selected migration step in order, as defined by the job configuration within its associated project and plan.

This process allows for precise, staged execution of migration activities across Qlik environments.

Running a job

Do the following:

  1. Select the Project
    On the Jobs tab, in the Project dropdown, ensure that the correct project is selected.

  2. Locate the job
    In the job list, locate the job you want to run.

  3. Click Run
    Under the Actions column of the job, click the Run button to start the job.

  4. Verify Run Status
    The Run Status of the job should now display as Running.

  5. Refresh the job list
    To ensure the Run Status is up to date, click the Refresh button in the job list.

  6. Monitor the job log
    To observe real-time execution progress, access the Job Log. See Accessing a job log for detailed steps.

Run status types

The Run Status reflects the job's current state. The following status indicators may appear:

  • Created
    The job was created but has not yet been executed.

  • Running
    The job is currently executing.

    Information note

    Check the Job Log for real-time output.

  • Cancelled
    The job was manually cancelled or stopped due to a tool-level error.

  • Completed
    The job completed successfully without any issues.

  • CompletedWithWarnings
    The job completed, but warnings occurred during execution. For example, a referenced app was missing on the source system.

    Information note

    Look for [WRN] tags in the job log.

  • CompletedWithErrors
    The job completed, but encountered one or more critical errors. For example, failure to create a space or export an app.

    Information note

    Look for [ERR] tags in red in the job log.

  • Failed
    The job did not complete due to configuration or runtime errors.

    Information note

    Check the job log for [ERR] tags to identify the cause.
