Monitor background job execution, status, and progress from the jobs dashboard.
The Jobs page provides a dashboard showing all background jobs running on the platform. Jobs are asynchronous tasks triggered by various actions across the admin panel.
Common job types
The following table lists the most common job types and what triggers them.
| Job Type | Triggered by |
|---|---|
| Schema Scan | Adding a connection or manually scanning |
| Metabase Sync | Syncing content from a Metabase connection |
| AI Insights | Generating AI descriptions for tables and columns |
| Evaluation Run | Running one or more evaluations |
| Knowledge Backfill | Processing historical messages for knowledge extraction |
| Embeddings Refresh | Refreshing vector embeddings for all content |
Monitoring jobs
The dashboard shows each job's status and progress. Active jobs display a progress bar, while completed jobs show their final status and duration.
Many admin actions trigger background jobs automatically. You can monitor their progress here or from the inline progress indicators that appear on the originating page.
