What is the job number in Linux?

The jobs command displays the status of jobs started in the current terminal window. Jobs are numbered starting from 1 for each session. The job ID numbers are used by some programs instead of PIDs (for example, by fg and bg commands).

How do I find my job ID?

Here’s where you can find a Job ID:

  1. On the Job Card in your Workspace.
  2. On the Job Card in My Jobs.
  3. On the Customer Receipt.
  4. In your Wallet Transaction History.
  5. In generated reports.
