# Repeatable

Repeatable jobs are a special type of job that based on a cron expression or some other repetition pattern will keep repeating as long as the conditions are met.

Repeatable jobs are a bit tricker to understand as a Repeatable job is composed of 2 elements, first a "meta-job" that keeps the repetition information, secondly the jobs themselves that are created after every iteration.

Once a repeatable job has been added to a queue it will keep repeating until either the conditions are not met anymore (such as when the end date has passed), or the repeatable "meta-job" is removed from the queue.

Repeatable jobs are not yet supported by the Proxy but it is coming soon.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.bullmq.net/http-api/queues/adding-jobs/repeatable.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
