# Job Priority Action

By default, each job is assigned the priority defined in the profile. With the help of the job priority action it is possible to change this priority again within the executed workflow / job. This can be done, for example, depending on a condition.

#### Example:

If a sequence is exported via the Premiere Pro Panel Extension, each job is given the same priority if the same profile is selected. If you want to prioritise individual jobs differently, for example those of a specific user or those with a specific metadata field, it would be possible to change the priority for this user or for this metadata field via a pre-stream before the job is added to the dashboard's queue .
