Response Structure

  • (dict) –

    • documentSource (string) –

      An S3 link to the job document.

    • job (dict) –

      Information about the job.

      • jobArn (string) –

        An ARN identifying the job with format “arn:aws:iot:region:account:job/jobId”.

      • jobId (string) –

        The unique identifier you assigned to this job when it was created.

      • targetSelection (string) –

        Specifies whether the job will continue to run (CONTINUOUS), or will be complete after all those things specified as targets have completed the job (SNAPSHOT). If continuous, the job may also be run on a thing when a change is detected in a target. For example, a job will run on a device when the thing representing the device is added to a target group, even after the job was completed by all things originally in the group.

        Note

        We recommend that you use continuous jobs instead of snapshot jobs for dynamic thing group targets. By using continuous jobs, devices that join the group receive the job execution even after the job has been created.

      • status (string) –

        The status of the job, one of IN_PROGRESS, CANCELED, DELETION_IN_PROGRESS or COMPLETED.

      • forceCanceled (boolean) –

        Will be true if the job was canceled with the optional force parameter set to true.

      • reasonCode (string) –

        If the job was updated, provides the reason code for the update.

      • comment (string) –

        If the job was updated, describes the reason for the update.

      • targets (list) –

        A list of IoT things and thing groups to which the job should be sent.

        • (string) –

      • description (string) –

        A short text description of the job.

      • presignedUrlConfig (dict) –

        Configuration for pre-signed S3 URLs.

        • roleArn (string) –

          The ARN of an IAM role that grants permission to download files from the S3 bucket where the job data/updates are stored. The role must also grant permission for IoT to download the files.

          Warning

          For information about addressing the confused deputy problem, see cross-service confused deputy prevention in the Amazon Web Services IoT Core developer guide.

        • expiresInSec (integer) –

        • numberOfTimedOutThings (integer) –

          The number of things whose job execution status is TIMED_OUT.

      • timeoutConfig (dict) –

        Specifies the amount of time each device has to finish its execution of the job. A timer is started when the job execution status is set to IN_PROGRESS. If the job execution status is not set to another terminal state before the timer expires, it will be automatically set to TIMED_OUT.

        • inProgressTimeoutInMinutes (integer) –

          Specifies the amount of time, in minutes, this device has to finish execution of this job. The timeout interval can be anywhere between 1 minute and 7 days (1 to 10080 minutes). The in progress timer can’t be updated and will apply to all job executions for the job. Whenever a job execution remains in the IN_PROGRESS status for longer than this interval, the job execution will fail and switch to the terminal TIMED_OUT status.
