Method

Parameters

Query Parameters

Name	Description
jobDefinitionId	Filter by job definition id.
activityIdIn	Only include job definitions which belong to one of the passed and comma-separated activity ids.
processDefinitionId	Only include job definitions which exist for the given process definition id.
processDefinitionKey	Only include job definitions which exist for the given process definition key.
jobType	Only include job definitions which exist for the given job type. See the User Guide for more information about job types.
jobConfiguration	Only include job definitions which exist for the given job configuration. For example: for timer jobs it is the timer configuration.
active	Only include active job definitions. Value may only be `true`, as `false` is the default behavior.
suspended	Only include suspended job definitions. Value may only be `true`, as `false` is the default behavior.
withOverridingJobPriority	Only include job definitions that have an overriding job priority defined. The only effective value is `true`. If set to `false`, this filter is not applied.
tenantIdIn	Only include job definitions which belong to one of the passed and comma-separated tenant ids.
withoutTenantId	Only include job definitions which belong to no tenant. Value may only be `true`, as `false` is the default behavior.
includeJobDefinitionsWithoutTenantId	Include job definitions which belong to no tenant. Can be used in combination with `tenantIdIn`. Value may only be `true`, as `false` is the default behavior.
sortBy	Sort the results lexicographically by a given criterion. Valid values are `jobDefinitionId`, `activityId`, `processDefinitionId`, `processDefinitionKey`, `jobType`, `jobConfiguration` and `tenantId`. Must be used in conjunction with the `sortOrder` parameter.
sortOrder	Sort the results in a given order. Values may be `asc` for ascending order or `desc` for descending order. Must be used in conjunction with the `sortBy` parameter.
firstResult	Pagination of results. Specifies the index of the first result to return.
maxResults	Pagination of results. Specifies the maximum number of results to return. Will return less results if there are no more results left.

Result

A JSON array of job definition objects. Each job definition object has the following properties:

Name	Value	Description
id	String	The id of the job definition.
processDefinitionId	String	The id of the process definition this job definition is associated with.
processDefinitionKey	String	The key of the process definition this job definition is associated with.
activityId	String	The id of the activity this job definition is associated with.
jobType	String	The type of the job which is running for this job definition. See the User Guide for more information about job types.
jobConfiguration	String	The configuration of a job definition provides details about the jobs which will be created. For example: for timer jobs it is the timer configuration.
overridingJobPriority	Number	The execution priority defined for jobs that are created based on this definition. May be `null` when the priority has not been overridden on the job definition level.
suspended	Boolean	Indicates whether this job definition is suspended or not.
tenantId	String	The id of the tenant this job definition is associated with.
deploymentId	String	The id of the deployment this job definition is related to. In a deployment-aware setup, this leads to all jobs of the same definition being executed on the same node.

Response Codes

Code	Media type	Description
200	application/json	Request successful.
400	application/json	Returned if some of the query parameters are invalid, for example if a `sortOrder` parameter is supplied, but no `sortBy`. See the Introduction for the error response format.
