description: "Learn how to use the jobs API to schedule and handle triggered jobs"
---

Now that you've learned what the [jobs building block]({{< ref jobs-overview.md >}}) provides, let's look at an example of how to use the API. The code example below describes an application that schedules jobs for a database backup application and handles them at trigger time, also known as the time the job was sent back to the application because it reached it's dueTime.

<!--
Include a diagram or image, if possible.
-->

## Start the Scheduler service

When you [run `dapr init` in either self-hosted mode or on Kubernetes]({{< ref install-dapr-selfhost.md >}}), the Dapr Scheduler service is started.

## Set up the Jobs API

In your code, set up and schedule jobs within your application.

{{< tabs "Go" >}}

{{% codetab %}}

<!--go-->

The following Go SDK code sample schedules the job named `prod-db-backup`. Job data is housed in a backup database (`"my-prod-db"`) and is scheduled with `ScheduleJobAlpha1`. This provides the `jobData`, which includes:
- The backup `Task` name
- The backup task's `Metadata`, including:
- The database name (`DBName`)
- The database location (`BackupLocation`)


```go
package main

import (
//...

daprc "github.com/dapr/go-sdk/client"
"github.com/dapr/go-sdk/examples/dist-scheduler/api"
"github.com/dapr/go-sdk/service/common"
daprs "github.com/dapr/go-sdk/service/grpc"
)

func main() {
// Initialize the server
server, err := daprs.NewService(":50070")
// ...

if err = server.AddJobEventHandler("prod-db-backup", prodDBBackupHandler); err != nil {
log.Fatalf("failed to register job event handler: %v", err)
}

log.Println("starting server")
go func() {
if err = server.Start(); err != nil {
log.Fatalf("failed to start server: %v", err)
}
}()
// ...

// Set up backup location
jobData, err := json.Marshal(&api.DBBackup{
Task: "db-backup",
Metadata: api.Metadata{
DBName: "my-prod-db",
BackupLocation: "/backup-dir",
},
},
)
// ...
}
```

The job is scheduled with a `Schedule` set and the amount of `Repeats` desired. These settings determine a max amount of times the job should be triggered and sent back to the app.

In this example, at trigger time, which is `@every 1s` according to the `Schedule`, this job is triggered and sent back to the application up to the max `Repeats` (`10`).

```go
// ...
// Set up the job
job := daprc.Job{
Name: "prod-db-backup",
Schedule: "@every 1s",
Repeats: 10,
Data: &anypb.Any{
Value: jobData,
},
}
```

At the trigger time, the `prodDBBackupHandler` function is called, executing the desired business logic for this job at trigger time. For example:

```go
// ...

// At job trigger time this function is called
func prodDBBackupHandler(ctx context.Context, job *common.JobEvent) error {
var jobData common.Job
if err := json.Unmarshal(job.Data, &jobData); err != nil {
// ...
}
decodedPayload, err := base64.StdEncoding.DecodeString(jobData.Value)
// ...

var jobPayload api.DBBackup
if err := json.Unmarshal(decodedPayload, &jobPayload); err != nil {
// ...
}
fmt.Printf("job %d received:\n type: %v \n typeurl: %v\n value: %v\n extracted payload: %v\n", jobCount, job.JobType, jobData.TypeURL, jobData.Value, jobPayload)
jobCount++
return nil
}
```

## Run the Dapr sidecar

Once you've set up the Jobs API in your application, in a terminal window run the Dapr sidecar with the following command.

{{< tabs "Go" >}}

{{% codetab %}}

```bash
dapr run --app-id=distributed-scheduler \
--metrics-port=9091 \
--dapr-grpc-port 50001 \
--app-port 50070 \
--app-protocol grpc \
--log-level debug \
go run ./main.go
```

## Try out the jobs API

You can try out the jobs API in your application. After [Dapr is installed]({{< ref install-dapr-cli.md >}}), you can begin using the jobs API, starting with [the How-to: Schedule jobs guide]({{< ref howto-schedule-jobs.md >}}).
