# scheduled-job-default-export-async - ESLint plugin rules

This rule requires the default-exported scheduled job function to be async.

## Severity

`error`. This rule is enabled in the [recommended](https://docs.medusajs.com/resources/lint#recommended) preset.

## What it Targets

This rule targets files in your project's `src/jobs` directory. It reports a default-exported scheduled job that isn't an async function.

The following code is reported by the rule:

```ts title="src/jobs/sync-products.ts"
export default function syncProducts() {}
```

Instead, make the job function async:

```ts title="src/jobs/sync-products.ts"
export default async function syncProducts() {}
```

## Why it's Important

Scheduled jobs receive the Medusa container and are always awaited by Medusa. Making the job async ensures Medusa can wait for its work to finish before continuing.

Learn more in the [Scheduled Jobs documentation](https://docs.medusajs.com/learn/fundamentals/scheduled-jobs).

## Fixable

This rule is auto-fixable. Run the linter with the `--fix` option to apply the fix automatically.
