The Job import process is completed when its status changes to Ok. If it fails, you could download the log file to understand why the import job did not succeed.
Automatically trigger job
When you are on the Connector job page, click on the job you want to automate.
Then click on the Schedule and History tab and define the job scheduling settings.
- In the event of an automatic trigger, please let a buffer between all jobs so the system can complete all import jobs before switching to another.
- In the event of a manual trigger, please make sure no automatic process is set in the meantime.
- Use the differential product import job as much as possible, to enhance the performances of the connector.
Job history

Here, you will find the list of jobs that have been executed until now. You could check the status of each job while browsing this list.
