Hi!

The very nature, and the power, of the scheduled jobs lies in their asynchronicity. As such, you wouldn't expect them to create chains that you describe. If you think about it, the fact that they're "scheduled" takes for granted that you schedule them ahead of time, to be ran at a specific time.

That being said, technically you can achieve the result you're looking:

// first, grab the sysauto_script record for the job
var JOB_ID = '';
var jobGR = new GlideRecord('sysauto_script');

// now, run the job using the same mechanism that's used in the OOB "Execute Now" UI Action
if (jobGR.get(JOB_ID)) {
    SncTriggerSynchronizer.executeNow(jobGR);
}

However, I'd recommend against that. Perhaps you could consider a series of Script Actions that would execute one another by throwing an event leading to the next one. This assumes that, for any reason, doing the same with a single piece of code is not feasible.

Please mark this response as useful and the question as solved if the issue has been solved. Thank you!
