Scheduled Tasks (scheduledtasks)

The scheduledtasks endpoint provides information about the application’s scheduled tasks.

Retrieving the Scheduled Tasks

To retrieve the scheduled tasks, make a GET request to /actuator/scheduledtasks, as shown in the following curl-based example:

$ curl 'http://localhost:8080/actuator/scheduledtasks' -i -X GET

The resulting response is similar to the following:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/vnd.spring-boot.actuator.v3+json
Content-Length: 629

{
  "cron" : [ {
    "runnable" : {
      "target" : "com.example.Processor.processOrders"
    },
    "expression" : "0 0 0/3 1/1 * ?"
  } ],
  "fixedDelay" : [ {
    "runnable" : {
      "target" : "com.example.Processor.purge"
    },
    "initialDelay" : 5000,
    "interval" : 5000
  } ],
  "fixedRate" : [ {
    "runnable" : {
      "target" : "com.example.Processor.retrieveIssues"
    },
    "initialDelay" : 10000,
    "interval" : 3000
  } ],
  "custom" : [ {
    "runnable" : {
      "target" : "com.example.Processor$CustomTriggeredRunnable"
    },
    "trigger" : "com.example.Processor$CustomTrigger@5bdd5b86"
  } ]
}
