python - How to access current job id from geoprocessing script running on esri server?

I want to programmatically access the current job id of a geoprocessing script running on ESRI 10.2. The script is what needs to know the job id, not the caller of the script.

While searching, I have seen plenty of examples of how the submit job request returns with the job id. This isn't what I want.

In my script that is running on the server, I want to include the job id in the logs, however I haven't found how to obtain the job in in the script. I initially checked arcpy.env, but I didn't see anything. Where else should I look?

Answer

I remembered an old script I use in testing so I thought I'd share. Maybe it'll help you or someone else. I added the logic to get the GUID. There's probably a better way to do it, but it works.

import arcpy, sys, socket, os

theExe = sys.executable

arcpy.AddMessage("the executable    : " + theExe)
arcpy.AddMessage("where is arcpy    : " + str(arcpy.__file__))

arcpy.AddMessage("the install dir   : " + str(arcpy.GetInstallInfo()["InstallDir"]))
arcpy.AddMessage("the product is    : " + str(arcpy.GetInstallInfo()["ProductName"]))
arcpy.AddMessage("the py version is : " + str(sys.version))
arcpy.AddMessage("hostname          : " + str(socket.gethostname()))
arcpy.AddMessage("path              : " + str(sys.path[0]))
arcpy.AddMessage("path              : " + str(os.path.dirname(__file__)))
arcpy.AddMessage("working dir       : " + str(os.getcwd()))
scr = arcpy.env.scratchFolder
arcpy.AddMessage(scr)  
if "server" in theExe.lower():

    guid = os.path.split(os.path.split(scr)[0])[1] #split 'scratch' off, then split remainder and grab guid    
    arcpy.AddMessage(guid)

arcpy.AddMessage("--------------------------------")
arcpy.AddMessage(arcpy.ProductInfo())
arcpy.AddMessage(arcpy.GetInstallInfo())
