DistributionJobID Property

This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

The DistributionJobID property identifies the SQL Server Agent job responsible for the distribution of published data.

Syntax

object.DistributionJobID

Parts

  • object
    An expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list

Data Type

String

Modifiable

Read-only

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetDistributionJobID(SQLDMO_LPBSTR pRetVal);

Note

SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO) strings are always returned as OLE BSTR objects. A C/C++ application obtains a reference to the string. The application must release the reference using SysFreeString.

Remarks

DistributionJobID is a 32-byte hexadecimal character representation of the unique identifier of the job. Microsoft SQL Server job names are not unique. The DistributionJobID property provides a unique method of identification.
