To find, edit, and create new workers you must be logged in as an admin user. Select the Administration tab. There you’ll see a new button called “Workers” as shown in the figure below:
Figure 1 - Access the worker service by selecting Administration tab > Workers.
If you are using the new interface, use the button with the settings icon located in the up right corner and click on “Workers”:
Figure 2 - In JFrog’s new interface access workers by selecting Settings > Worker.
Once in the Workers section you will see a set of cards representing actions upon which you can create workers. The Worker service is still in a BETA and offers a limited set of actions today, but this set will expand.
The workflow to use Workers may remind you of the Webhook service but there are a few differences between Events and Workers:

The workflow to use Workers may remind you of the Webhook service but there are a few differences between Events and Workers:
- A worker is a script hosted on the JFrog platform
- The script is provided with support tools to make workers easy to use (a topic for another article)
- The service that launches an action that triggers a worker will wait for the worker's completion, so a worker can perform activities on the platform before the action actually occurs and is thus able to impact the result of the action.
