+[Scaleway Serverless Jobs](/serverless-jobs/quickstart/) allows you to create and automate recurring tasks. This tutorial will guide you through the process of creating snapshots of a [Scaleway Managed MongoDB® database](/managed-mongodb-databases/quickstart/) on a recurring schedule using a Serverless Job.
+
+Serverless Jobs are perfectly adapted for these autonomous tasks, as we do not need autoscaling or exposure via a web server. Refer to the [documentation on differences between jobs, containers, and functions](/serverless-jobs/reference-content/difference-jobs-functions-containers/) for more information.

+<Macro id="requirements" />
+
+- A Scaleway account logged into the [console](https://console.scaleway.com).
+- [Owner](/iam/concepts/#owner) status or [IAM permissions](/iam/concepts/#permission) allowing you to perform actions in the intended Organization.
+- Created a [Managed MongoDB® database](/managed-mongodb-databases/how-to/create-a-database-instance/).
+
+## Creating the job definition
+
+1. In the [Scaleway console](https://console.scaleway.com), click **Jobs** in the **Serverless** section of the side menu. The jobs page displays.
+
+2. Click **Create job**. The job creation wizard displays.
+
+3. For **Container Image**, select **External**, and in **Image URL**, set: `scaleway/cli:latest`.
+
+4. Enter a name or use the automatically generated one.
+
+5. Select the region in which your job will be created.
+
+6. Keep the default **resources** values, as this job requires little compute capability.
+
+7. Set **cron schedule** to `0 18 * * *` and select the relevant time zone to run the job every evening at 18:00 p.m. Refer to the [cron schedules documentation](/serverless-jobs/reference-content/cron-schedules/) for more information.
+
+8. Define the following environment variables:
+    - `SCW_ACCESS_KEY`: your API access key.
+    - `SCW_SECRET_KEY`: your API secret key.
+    - `SCW_DEFAULT_PROJECT_ID`: your Project ID.
+    - `SCW_DEFAULT_ORGANIZATION_ID`: your Organization ID.
+    - `SCW_DEFAULT_REGION`: concerned region.
+
+    <Message type="note">
+        We recommend using Secret Manager to store the `SCW_ACCESS_KEY` and `SCW_SECRET_KEY`.
+    </Message>
+
+    For more details about variables used by `cli`, refer to the [CLI config documentation](https://github.com/scaleway/scaleway-cli/blob/master/docs/commands/config.md).
+
+9. In the **Execution** tab, define the command below, and replace the placeholders with the ID of your Managed MongoDB® Database Instance ID and the name of your snapshot: 
+    ```sh
+    scw mongodb snapshot create <MONGO_INSTANCE_ID> name="snapshot_$(date +%Y%m%d_%H%M%S)" expires-at=30d
+    ```
+
+10. Click **Create job**.
+
+Your job will automatically create a snapshot named `snapshot_<DATE_TIME>` with a 30-day retention period every day at 18:00 p.m. 
+
+## Running the job
+
+From the **Overview** tab of the Serverless job you just created, click **Actions**, then select **Run job** from the contextual menu.
+
+The execution appears in the **Job runs** section. You can access the logs of your job by clicking <Icon name="more" /> next to the job run ID, and selecting **See on Cockpit**.
+
+## Possible improvements
+
+This tutorial is a lightweight example of how to create recurring snapshots of a Database Instance. You can go further by:
+- Using it to manage all your Database Instances' snapshots
+- Setting up an alerting system in case of unexpected behavior
+- Explore [scaleway/serverless-examples repository](https://github.com/scaleway/serverless-examples) for advanced automation examples
