[ This article is for Windows Phone 8 developers. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation. ]
Override this class to implement a Scheduled Task, also referred to as a background agent. This class contains one method, OnInvoke, which is called whenever the Scheduled Task is executed. For more information, see Background agents for Windows Phone 8.

The ScheduledTaskAgent type exposes the following members.

![]() | Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
