Job Watch

ProDeveloper & Technical

Job Watch tells you when a scheduled job quietly stops working. Each backup, cron job or scheduled task gets its own ping URL to call when it runs; if a ping is late past the grace time, reports a failure or a run hangs, you get an alert, and another when it recovers. It's for anyone whose nightly backup failed for a month before anyone noticed.

Features

  • Schedules as every N minutes, hours or days, or a cron line in your time zone
  • Start, success, failure and exit-code pings, with run times and the job's output as a log
  • Alerts on down and recovery through push or in-app, plus an optional Slack or Discord webhook
  • Copy-paste snippets for crontab, curl, wget, PowerShell and Windows Task Scheduler
  • "Monitor this job" from Cron Builder, with the schedule and time zone filled in
