Scripts jobs running state logs

Product: PowerShell Universal
Version: 5.6.1

I may not have searched good enough, but I have several scripts that run in the background for extended periods.

In the Jobs view, I can only access logs for jobs that have reached a successful (completed) or unsuccessful state. However, I cannot find a method to view live logs for currently running jobs—except by executing the script manually and monitoring the window until completion. I believe this functionality was available in version 4 but appears to be missing in the latest release.

you can see activly running jobs from the jobs view, and then click into them and see the status and output while they are running.

I’m wondering if you have a filter applied, it’s not always obvious, as I did this myself initially in v5. The filters that apply to status only show either successful or unsuccessful, but it stays when you navigate away and come back.

Take a look at the column header, do you have a blue filter icon?

If you do, click it, and deselect anything that appears, now you should have all you jobs showing, including currently running.

yes you are completely right - i had filter applied to status column (and yes it not obvious)
thx for clarification :slight_smile:

Yeah, it’s easy to miss, I think that the advanced/search filter should have “Successful”, “Failed” and “Running” so that if anyone did miss the applied filter, it would be more obvious to find existing ones that way too
