Week 26 - Tasks & Scheduling

This week we'll be looking at a feature that has just hit Preview Feature - Open :
Sending Email Notifications.

We're asking you to use this feature in conjunction with linked tasks to create a very small chain while tackling 2 different subjects.

The Challenge

The assignment for this week is two-fold :

  • Create a scheduled task (task #1) that inserts the current timestamp into a table every 5 minutes
  • Create a linked task (task #2) that sends an email that confirms the running of task #1 that contains the following information:
    "Task has successfully finished on <Account> which is deployed on <region> region at <timestamp>

Remember, if you want to participate:

  2. Post your code to GitHub and make it publicly available (Check out our guide if you don’t know how to here)
  3. Post the URL in the comments of the challenge
