Hi, 

Not exactly sure what the question is here. You can still execute tasks through Logic Apps, with a Post via the API, instead of a Get via the URL. 

Can you put some more words on the need you have?

Well as mentioned here for DW9 - I call taskexecute: (https://doc.dynamicweb.com/get-started/introduction/installation/deploying-to-microsoft-azure)

• Method: Post
• Url: yoururl.com/Admin/public/taskexecute.aspx
• Interval: 5
• Frequency: Minute

And then that makes sure to start each indivual task.

So I am just wondering what I need to setup, to get the same functionality on DW10. It sounds like a post VIA the API is what I need, so what do I call now instead? - I have only been able to find the call for each indivual task, not for the tastexecute that handles calling the other tasks.

Hi all,

DynamicWeb 10 does not rely on an external scheduler. Running scheduled tasks is handled internally through a HostedService that checks whether tasks need to run every minute. For this reason, TaskExecute.aspx does not exist on DW10.

If you need a way to run tasks, you're on the right track with using the Management API. Call the TasksQuery to find tasks and the TaskRunCommand to execute them. This can be done from a Logic App; it only requires an API key from the DynamicWeb backend.

I wanted to clarify by your message and after looking over the scheduler code that the scheduler does not rely on windows anymore but is handled within .NET now? Is this a correct statement? 

Hi,

Yes, as Jeppe mentioned, this is now handled by a hosted service in .NET.
