Check out the file - <strong>"scheduled-action-services-context.xml.sample"</strong> under <strong>tomcat\shared\classes\alfresco\extension</strong>. Rename it to scheduled-action-services-context.xml and check out for various sample jobs in it. After adding/modifying you bean definition restart the server to make the changes reflect.

1. Yes ,scheduled-jobs-context.xml must be put in tomcat/shared/alfresco/classes/extension folder.it will trigger the quartz job you configured in CronScheduledQueryBasedTemplateActionDefinition class.
2.If the scrip you want to run located in

 Company Home > Data Dictionary > Web Scripts > org > alfresco > test ‍

you should write it like


<!–note that after alfresco 4.0,  freemarker  entries must be escaped–>
<value>\$\{selectSingleNode('workspace://SpacesStore', 'lucene','PATH:"/app:company_home/app:dictionary/cm:webscripts/cm:org/cm:alfresco/cm:test/cm:hello.get.js"')\}</value>
‍‍‍‍

By the way why not put your js into

  Company Home > Data Dictionary > scripts‍

the problem is resolved. I used the Script Action Example at the end of this page https://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Scheduled_Actions
and just changed the place and the name of the script.
