Automatically create scripts for all SQL Server Jobs
This is pretty old question, but for future visitors my answer can be helpful :
Another way is to just export to file using dbatools
Get-DbaAgentJob -SqlInstance workstation\sql2016 | Export-DbaScript
you can even script out your entire instance or subset including agent jobs, operators, logins, etc for disaster recovery purpose.
After some further investigation I found a good script that did the job Generate-Scripts-for-SQL-Server-Objects
The code below is what I needed:
DECLARE @object int
exec sp_OACreate 'SQLDMO.SQLServer', @object OUT
exec sp_OASetProperty @object, 'LoginSecure', TRUE
exec sp_OAMethod @object,'Connect(sqltest)'
exec sp_OAMethod @object, 'Jobserver.Jobs().Script()'
exec sp_OADestroy @object
Thanks for the help anyway
I use this Stored Procedur for create script from all job in one database :
USE msdb
Go
EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1
GO
RECONFIGURE
GO
EXEC sp_configure 'xp_cmdshell', 1
GO
RECONFIGURE
