Getting started

Overview

This document walks you through the first steps after installing powerJobs Client on your Vault workstation.
From now on, you’ll automatically receive notifications about submitted jobs—and be alerted if any of them fail.

Below, you’ll find links to other powerful features that powerJobs Client brings to your workstation.

Trigger notifications within Vault

Open the Vault Client and queue DWF job for a file

Note

In case multiple jobs are triggered at the same time in a short time period the user will not get flooded with notifications, instead he receives a single notification.
