# View & Filter Jobs

> Search and filter jobs by time, status, and resource

## Overview

Use filters to find specific jobs, analyze patterns, and troubleshoot issues efficiently.

## Viewing Collection Jobs

Jobs can be viewed at two levels:

### Connection-Level Jobs

View all collection jobs across all resources in a connection.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Navigate to Connection">
    Click on a connection from the Connections page
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open Collection Tab">
    Click the **Collection** or **Jobs** tab

    </Frame>
  </Step>
</Steps>

### Resource-Level Jobs

View collection jobs for a specific resource.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Navigate to Resource">
    Click on a resource name from the Resources page
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open Collection Tab">
    Click the **Collection** tab to see jobs for this resource only
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Job Information

Each job displays key information:

### Job Status

Jobs have one of the following statuses:

* **Running** (Blue) - Collection is currently in progress
* **Completed** (Green) - Collection finished successfully
* **Failed** (Red) - Collection encountered an error and stopped
* **Scheduled** (Gray) - Job is queued but hasn't started yet

</Frame>

### Job Metrics

For each job, you can see:

* **Resource** (connection-level view only) - Which resource was collected
* **Timestamp** - When the job started
* **Records** - Total number of records collected
* **Records/s** - Collection speed (records per second)
* **Duration** - How long the collection took
* **Job ID** - Unique identifier for troubleshooting

</Frame>

## Collection Performance Chart

The Collection page includes a visual chart showing collection trends over time.

<Frame>

</Frame>

### Chart Features

* **Time series view** - See collection volume and frequency over time
* **Multiple resources** - Compare performance across resources (connection-level view)
* **Zoom and pan** - Focus on specific time periods
* **Hover details** - See exact values for any data point

### Interpreting the Chart

The chart helps you:

* **Identify trends** - Is data volume growing or shrinking?
* **Spot anomalies** - Sudden spikes or drops in record counts
* **Verify schedules** - Are collections running when expected?
* **Compare resources** - Which resources collect the most data?

<Tip>
  Use the chart to validate that collections are running according to your schedule and processing expected data volumes.
</Tip>

## Filtering and Searching Jobs

Refine the jobs list to find specific executions.

### Time Range Filters

Filter jobs by when they ran:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Filter Panel">
    Click the filter button or use the filter controls above the jobs table

    <Frame>
      <img src="https://mintcdn.com/entegrata/d4pzv5m2aXdjP4mx/data/collector/jobs/images/jobs-filter-panel.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=d4pzv5m2aXdjP4mx&q=85&s=640faa9f524e77b738d93378b92422fe" alt="Jobs filter panel" width="2161" height="35" data-path="data/collector/jobs/images/jobs-filter-panel.png" />
    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select Time Range">
    Choose from preset ranges or specify custom dates:

    * Last 24 hours (default)
    * Last 7 days
    * Last 30 days
    * Custom date range
  </Step>

  <Step title="Apply Filter">
    The jobs table and chart update to show only jobs within the selected range
  </Step>
</Steps>

### Status Filters

Filter jobs by their execution status:

</Frame>

* Show/hide Running jobs
* Show/hide Completed jobs
* Show/hide Failed jobs
* Show/hide Scheduled jobs

<Tip>
  To troubleshoot issues, filter to show only Failed jobs.
</Tip>

### Resource Filters (Connection-Level Only)

When viewing connection-level jobs, filter by specific resources:

Select one or more resources to see only their jobs.

### Combining Filters

All filters work together. For example:

* **Last 7 days** + **Failed status** + **Specific resource** = See all failures for that resource in the past week

### Chart vs. Table Filters

<Info>
  By default, the chart shows up to 1000 recent jobs for visualization, while the table is paginated. Both respect your filter settings.
</Info>

**Toggle Chart Resources**

For connections with many resources, you can limit the chart to show:

* **Top 10 resources** (default) - Most active resources by record count
* **All resources** - Toggle on to see every resource

</Frame>

## Job Pagination

Jobs are displayed in pages for easy navigation.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Set Page Size">
    Choose how many jobs to show per page (10, 20, 50, or 100)

    <Frame>
      <img src="https://mintcdn.com/entegrata/d4pzv5m2aXdjP4mx/data/collector/jobs/images/jobs-per-page.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=d4pzv5m2aXdjP4mx&q=85&s=3d1c3e52f04fc124e121224d284bc0c8" alt="Jobs per page selector" width="142" height="41" data-path="data/collector/jobs/images/jobs-per-page.png" />
    </Frame>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Navigate Pages">
    Use the pagination controls at the bottom of the table to move between pages

  </Step>
</Steps>

## Job Performance Metrics

### Records Collected

Total number of records processed in the job. Use this to:

* Verify expected data volume
* Track data growth over time
* Identify anomalies (sudden spikes or drops)

### Records Per Second

Processing speed showing how fast data was collected. Use this to:

* Benchmark normal performance
* Identify slow collections
* Compare performance across resources

### Duration

Total time from job start to completion. Use this to:

* Estimate future collection times
* Schedule jobs to avoid conflicts
* Identify performance degradation
