Job Data

Every job can have its own custom data. The data is stored in the data attribute of the job:

TypeScript

import { Queue } from 'bullmq';

const myQueue = new Queue('paint');

const job = await myQueue.add('wall', { color: 'red' });

job.data; // { color: 'red' }

Python

Update data

If you want to change the data after inserting a job, just use the updateData method. For example:

TypeScript

const job = await Job.create(queue, 'wall', { color: 'red' });

await job.updateData({
  color: 'blue',
});

job.data; // { color: 'blue' }
