Webservice callout from Scheduled Apex | Report in Batch Job | System.CalloutException: Callout from scheduled Apex not supported


We used to get "System.CalloutException: Callout from scheduled Apex not supported" Error when we are making a webservice callout from a class which is implementing Database.Schedulable interface because Salesforce does not allow us to make callouts from Schedulable classes.

Issue

Sample Scheduler Class


global class SampleScheduler implements Schedulable{
    
    global void execute(SchedulableContext sc) 
    {        
        Http http = new Http();
        HttpRequest request = new HttpRequest();
        request.setEndpoint('https://th-apex-http-callout.herokuapp.com/animals');
        request.setMethod('GET');
        HttpResponse response = http.send(request);

        if (response.getStatusCode() == 200) {
            Map<String, Object> results = (Map<String, Object>) JSON.deserializeUntyped(response.getBody());
            List<Object> animals = (List<Object>) results.get('animals');
            System.debug('Received the following animals:');
            for (Object animal: animals) {
                System.debug(animal);
            }
        }
    }    
}

Execute Above Scheduler Class


String sch = '0 00 * * * ?';
system.schedule('Test Schedule', sch, new SampleScheduler());


Error Screen Shot 

Scheduler: failed to execute scheduled job: jobId: 7076A00000EmLPu, class: common.apex.async.AsyncApexJobObject, reason: Callout from scheduled Apex not supported




Solution :- We can solved this issue with below solution.
  1. @future method
Scheduler Class

global class SampleScheduler implements Schedulable{
    
    global void execute(SchedulableContext sc) 
    {        
 
  BatchUtilClass.futureMethodSample();
    }    
}

Future Class Method

public class BatchUtilClass {
    @future(callout=true)
    public static void futureMethodSample() {
        Http http = new Http();
        HttpRequest request = new HttpRequest();
        request.setEndpoint('https://th-apex-http-callout.herokuapp.com/animals');
        request.setMethod('GET');
        HttpResponse response = http.send(request);

        if (response.getStatusCode() == 200) {
            Map<String, Object> results = (Map<String, Object>) JSON.deserializeUntyped(response.getBody());
            List<Object> animals = (List<Object>) results.get('animals');
            System.debug('Received the following animals:');
            for (Object animal: animals) {
                System.debug(animal);
            }
        }
    }
}

  2. We can also use batch class based on our requirement. Can't we implement the Database.AllowCallouts interface with Schedulable and do the callout from class?
