# Scheduled Jobs

Each notebook in Zerve has an inbuilt scheduler as part of it. This can be used to run analytics workflows that need to be run at scheduled intervals - hourly/daily/weekly/custom (cron string)

## **Setting up a Scheduled Job:**

Click on Scheduled jobs from Add Layer tab on Development layer.

Once the scheduled job is activated it is read only. To edit blocks in scheduled layer - deactivate the job to get edit access.

## Check Scheduler Status:

Each scheduled job layer has a tracker that logs the details of each run. If any exception is hit or code error happens during a run on one of the blocks then the job fails. The Scheduled Job Run tracker can be used to identify and fix any errors that might occur.
