Hi,

I am trying to change the selected jobs, is there a way to do this, I can not find something related in the documentation.

It only seems you can ‘get’ the current selected jobs data with MonitorUtils.GetSelectedJobs()

Looking for something like SetSelectedJobs ( _array with job.ids )

The reason why I want this, is because now and then colleagues ask me what went wrong with a specific job. It would be really helpful if they can send their current selected jobs (id’s) instead of a copy paste of the name and I have to look it up again :slight_smile:

Could you get your co-workers to use the right click Scripts->Copy Job ID so you can search with a unique term instead of the job name that might have multiple results?

In a way, the search box already does SetSelectedJobs() :smiley: But there isn’t a function to select a job in the Monitor based on some input. There is RepositoryUtils.GetJob() but that’s not quite what you’re looking for as I’m reading this.

This does help me. Then I can copy the selected job id’s with a ‘|’ sign in between and that can I paste in the search bar.

It is already something for an easier communication :slight_smile: Thanks!
