For the first time I have cloned one of my own apps and executed it, and I noticed two unexpected behaviors. I would like to know if I should have expected them or not:
-
The cloned app does not use the same user table as the original app, so I was expecting to be asked to log in. Instead when I ran the app I was already logged in.
Is this the correct behavior?
-
The next day I noticed that a scheduled task ran during the night.
I checked the production app and the scheduled task “has never run”.I will blame the lack of execution of the production scheduled tasks on the beta editor. Since I switched to the beta editor my scheduled tasks are a mess and I need to check them constantly because they seem to have a life of their own. I hope this FR will be addressed soon.
But I feel like having scheduled tasks running immediately after an app is cloned can be dangerous. One could clone an app and inadvertently send tons of emails (which is what happened to me, after I changed some data in a table, so the emails were sent to the wrong people and with the wrong content).
Are scheduled tasks of the cloned app supposed to run?
