We support the following App-Scheduled Jobs. Each job is described and its function and frequency of execution. However, you can always update or change the frequency of scheduled jobs according to your needs.   

  • Auto Approval Processor - Checks the records to know which schedule it belongs to and processes it further. Only records that have auto-approval enabled are processed by the Auto Approval Processor.
  • Download Processor - This process picks the records of type Download with Queued status from the sync queue and parses the XML. The number of records to be picked in a batch is defined by the Size of Download batch setting in the Properties section. Currently, we support three download processors that work in parallel to speed up the process.
  • Fetch Qualys Asset Groups Schedule - This schedule is executed once daily by default. Once executed, it syncs all of the Asset Groups in Qualys Enterprise TruRisk™ Platform for use within the App. You may run this more than once daily if you frequently generate Asset Groups in the Qualys Enterprise TruRisk™ Platform.
  • Fetch Qualys Asset Tags Schedule - This schedule is executed once daily by default. Once executed, it syncs all Asset Tags in Qualys Enterprise TruRisk™ Platform for use within the App. You may run this more than once daily if you frequently generate Asset Tags in Qualys Enterprise TruRisk™ Platform.
