job_updated action type

[Remus Avram]

Hi Ftrack Team,

I see that there are 5 types of action: add, update, remove, move and job_updated.

I am wandering for what job_updated is used for?

Best,

Remus

This is a special event triggered by the server when a job has changed (e.g. the status of the job). I was not able to find any good reason why this is not handled through the ordinary update event.

Thanks @Mattias Lagergren for the explanation. 

What do you mean by job?

[Mattias Lagergren]

Job in this case is the "Job" entity in ftrack - e.g. export, encode or if you create them from the API.
