Most people seem to have “oldest first” while mine display “newest first” (which I much prefer). Earlier mine switched spontaneously while I was away from my computer, but it turned out my session had expired. They went back to “newest first” when I logged back in to cryoSPARC.
Is there a way to set the order in which jobs are displayed? I know some of my colleagues would prefer “newest first” too, and I’d like to be able to switch it back if something changes it. Thanks.
Hi @DanielAsarnow,
The sort order for jobs is a user-level setting that persists across tabs and even if you logout. It’s not expected to change out of the blue - could it be that it was changed by someone else logged in under the same account?

In my case I think it was something about having the session expired. Now that you mention it, I do recall there used to be a user settings page. Where can I find the setting now? The one for workspaces doesn’t seem to affect jobs.
Hi @DanielAsarnow,
At the moment, v2 doesn’t have a specific user settings page; the sort order dropdown will appear depending on whether you are viewing projects, workspaces or jobs and they are independently set.

Ah - I don’t see the sort order drop down for jobs. The others ones are there.
Sorry my mistake - sort order isn’t available for jobs. Improved filtering and searching for projects, workspaces and jobs is something that we are actively working on, stay tuned for updates on that front!

Is there then some configuration option from earlier days in a file? Sorry for harping on this, I’ve just had multiple people ask me how I made the jobs go the other way, and it always confuses me when I look at other folks’ cryoSPARC instances.
Hi @DanielAsarnow,
Sorry again - you are correct, there is a setting not available in the user interface to set the display order for jobs. This setting is able to be set via the mongo shell. First log into the shell:
cryosparcm mongo
Then:
db.users.update({ _id: '<your_user_id>' }, { $set: { "state.jobsSort": "created-desc" } })
You can find your user id by looking at the sidebar after clicking on a workspace:
Hope this helps!
