UiPath Automation Developer Professional v1 — Question 158

What happens to a job’s execution schedule if the job is queued but the termination strategy specifies a stop action after 20 minutes?

Answer options

• A. The job stops at the specified time (20 minutes after scheduling), even if the job is queued and starts later.
• B. The stop strategy is ignored for queued jobs, and the job runs until completion once execution begins.
• C. If the job remains queued past the 20-minute stop interval, the termination strategy pauses until the job begins execution, ensuring it can run for the full duration.
• D. The stop action applies only once the job starts execution, and the timer begins from the job’s start time.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because the stop action only begins to apply once the job actually starts running, meaning the timer does not count down while the job is still queued. Options A and B misinterpret how the stop action applies to queued jobs, while C incorrectly states that the timer pauses, which is not the case.
