I need the ability to monitor certain jobs and be notified when they are updated, made inactive, etc. I've created a job than can monitor when another job goes inactive. In terms of monitoring when a job is edited/updated it seemed like the simplest way to do this is using a VisualCron Trigger for the "Job Updated" event. The problem is that (in contrast to what the documentation says) this event does not require a specific job name, so it gets triggered when ANY job is updated. Once that happens, I don't see a way to figure out WHICH job was updated. Questions:
1) The documentation says that Job events require you to specify the job, but that doesn't seem true on most of the job events. Can you clarify?
2) If I do use a "job updated" event as the trigger, is there then a way in the job to figure out WHICH job was updated?

Use these Variables:

{TRIGGER(Active|LastTrigger|VisualCron.Result.Message)}
{TRIGGER(Active|LastTrigger|VisualCron.Result.Job.Name)}
{TRIGGER(Active|LastTrigger|VisualCron.Result.Job.Id)}

Is there a variable that will tell me the username of the user that modified/inactivated, etc the job (i.e. inactivated it, causing the trigger to fire)?

This gives the latest state of the Job.

{JOB(Active|CreatedBy.Name)}
{JOB(Active|ModifiedBy.Name)}
