Jobs
The immich-server responds to API requests for data and files for the web and mobile app. To do this quickly and reliably, it offloads most other work to immich-microservices in the form of jobs. Simply put, a job is a request to process data in the background. Jobs are picked up automatically by microservices containers.
When a new asset is uploaded it kicks off a series of jobs, which include metadata extraction, thumbnail generation, machine learning tasks, and storage template migration, if enabled. To view the status of a job navigate to the Administration -> Jobs page.
Additionally, some jobs run on a schedule, which is every night at midnight. This schedule, with the exception of External Libraries scanning, cannot be changed.
:::info Storage Migration job can be run after changing the Storage Template, in order to apply the change to the existing library. :::
