GetJobByID Method

This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

The GetJobByID method returns a SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO) Job object referencing the SQL Server Agent job identified by the specified job identifier.

Syntax

object
.GetJobByID(
Name
, [ Flag ] )asJob

Parts

  • object
    Expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list.
  • Name
    String representation of a SQL Server Agent job identifier.
  • Flag
    When TRUE, the GetJobByID method queries an instance of Microsoft SQL Server for the most recent copy of the job. When FALSE (default) and the application has cached the define jobs in a collection, only the cached collection is searched.

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetJobByID(
SQLDMO_LPCSTR szName,
LPSQLDMOJOB* ppJob,
BOOL bFlag = FALSE);

Returns

A Job object.

Remarks

SQL Server Agent jobs are uniquely identified by a system-generated identifier. The identifier is a 32-character string representing a hexadecimal number and is visible in the JobID property of a SQL-DMO Job object.
