Scheduled Job In Parse.com

Question

I want to run Cloud Code with scheduled Job in Parse.(sashido.io)

randomMentor function picks the some object in my Class with random number and saving it Today Class. When I call this method from Swift via PF.Cloud.callFunctionInBackground it works pretty well.

But I couldn't work from the Parse Dashboard. I created a scheduled job in my Dashboard with pickTodaysMentor name and it tries to run with Parse.cloud.run closure. But it always return with: error loading cloud code Parse.Cloud.define is not a function

There is my functions.js;

Parse.Cloud.define('randomMentor', async function (request, response) {
    var Mentor = Parse.Object.extend('Mentor');
    var countQuery = new Parse.Query(Mentor);
    const count = await countQuery.count();
    const query = new Parse.Query('Mentor');
    const randomInt = Math.floor(Math.random() * count);
    query.equalTo('position', randomInt);
    query.limit(1); // limit to at most 10 results
    const results = await query.find();

    const Today = Parse.Object.extend('Today');
    const today = new Today();
    today.set('mentor', results[0]);
    today.save()
        .then((today) => {
            response.success("Today Mentor Created.");
        }, (error) => {
            response.error(error);
        });
    response.success("Today Mentor Created.");
});

Parse.Cloud.job('pickTodaysMentor', (request) => {
    const { params, headers, log, message } = request;
    message("I just started");
    Parse.Cloud.run('randomMentor', {}, {
        success: function (result) {
        },
        error: function (error) {
        }
    });
});

I am not a JS Developer so couldn't find any solution. I digged tutorials, guides and a search engine but no luck. I think error is too generic for finding the issue.

What do you think?

Your answer is not contain my question. It's only example. By the way, my problem is solved. It was a server issue. Code works well. Thank you for trying to help. — emresancaktar, May 29 '19 at 14:12

The error you are receiving means that your Cloud Code function is invalid.

It should look something like this in versions of Parse Server 3.0.0 and above:

Parse.Cloud.define("function", async (request) => {
  return "Hello World";
});
