Integration Framework Batch vs Scheduled Tasks

Hi There,

Just looking for some clarification so I fully understand. In the documenation here: https://doc.dynamicweb.com/documentation-9/integration/integration-framework-2/batch-integration is is stated that

"Scheduled tasks are also used outside the integration framework – to clean up logs, send scheduled emails, place recurring orders, etc. This is a separate class of scheduled tasks, and you cannot create integration-related scheduled tasks from the regular scheduled task nodes – you must go to Settings > Integration > Integration Framework Batch instead (Figure 2.1)."

I think I understand, but what confuses me is that if I define a task in "Integration Framework Batch" it also shows up in the "Regular Scheduled Tasks Node". So that sort of gives the impression that although the tasks are different, they are also the same? Is something configured wrong in this case?

Hi Justin,

 

Within Integration Framework Batch, you see a filtered list of scheduled tasks (not duplicated - just filtered), which can be benefitial in 2 ways:

  • Someone that needs to focus on integration data (not necessarily scheduled tasks)
  • Using permissions preventing non-admins from handling non-integration related scheduled tasks, needed for the proper functioning of Dynamicweb

 

Hope this makes sense.

 

Best Regards,

Nuno Aguiar
