FAQ

Questions Trigger.dev owners ask.

  • 01

    Can I trigger multiple background tasks at once?

    Yes! You can use the batch_trigger_tasks capability to trigger up to 1,000 tasks in a single batch request, which is highly efficient for high-volume workflows.

  • 02

    How do I check the output or error of a specific job run?

    Use the get_run capability with the specific Run ID. It will return the full status, payload, output, and any attempt details or error logs associated with that run.

  • 03

    Can I schedule a task to run automatically using a cron expression?

    Absolutely. Use the create_schedule capability to define a task identifier, a cron expression (e.g., '0 0 *'), and a deduplication key to automate recurring background jobs.
