Note: real-time triggered automations are not available in Qlik Application Automation. This information applies to the blendr.io platform only.
Asynchronous automations are running asynchronously, which means that the triggering system will not wait for the automation to finish to return a response. The only response you’ll get when triggering an asynchronous automation is a confirmation that the job is queued successfully. This option is useful when no response is required from the automation .
Real-time automations are running synchronously, meaning they will return a response payload after the automation was executed. In the background, runs are executed in parallel, making them more efficient to use. As a downside, real-time automations do not support job logs, so your job log history will be empty.
If you set both of these flags to No, the default will just be a synchronous triggered automation, with job log history.
Please note that these settings come with different job execution time limits as described here.
