Python Code Snippets for Tracking Cron Jobs

Once your SaasHound account is set up, you can use the following code snippet to track your cron jobs. Replace API_KEY with your SaasHound API key and update your project name.

import json
import requests

def log_event():
    api_url = 'https://api.saashound.co/log-event'
    payload = {
        "project": "my-project",
        "channel": "cron-jobs",
        "event": "Cronjob Started",
        "description": "job id: email-notifications",
        "icon": "⏰",
        "notify": True  # Replace with the appropriate value
    }

    headers = {
        'Content-Type': 'application/json',
        'Authorization': 'Bearer API_TOKEN'  # Replace API_TOKEN with your actual API token
    }

    try:
        response = requests.post(api_url, data=json.dumps(payload), headers=headers)

        if 200 <= response.status_code < 300:
            print('Log event sent successfully!')
        else:
            print('Failed to send log event. Response code:', response.status_code)
    except requests.exceptions.RequestException as error:
        print('Error sending log event:', error)

log_event()
