Exceptions
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| InvalidOperationException | A scheduled action with the same Name property is already registered with the system. The user has disabled background agents in the Background Tasks settings page. The maximum number of agents of the agent type being added has been exceeded. |
| SchedulerServiceException | The Scheduled Action Service has encountered an internal error. The Scheduled Action Service is not ready, such as within one minute after device boot. |
Remarks
Scheduled actions are uniquely identified per application by the Name property. Attempting to add a notification with the same name as one that has already been registered will throw an exception.
The IsEnabled property is updated as soon as the action is registered with the service, letting you know if the user has disabled scheduled actions for your application.
