Firebase jobdispatcher triggering job once

Question

I'm using firebase job dispatcher for making network calls lets say every 30 seconds, my service class:

 @Override
public boolean onStartJob(JobParameters job) {
    getLocation();
    return true;
}

and my job instance:

 Job job = dispatcher.newJobBuilder()
            .setLifetime(Lifetime.FOREVER)
            .setService(ScheduledJobService.class)
            .setTag("UniqueTagForYourJob")
            .setReplaceCurrent(false)
            .setRecurring(true)
            .setTrigger(Trigger.executionWindow(0,20))
            .setRetryStrategy(RetryStrategy.DEFAULT_LINEAR)
            .setConstraints(Constraint.ON_ANY_NETWORK)
            .build();

but the service is getting called only once

For periodic jobs the minimum interval is 15 minutes from Nougat. Try with a larger time interval

thank you for pointing it out, also when api call goes phone wakes up, educate me when application is in running mode service calls will go or not? – blackHawk Aug 31 '18 at 06:19
