Schedule

The Schedule block automatically triggers workflows on a recurring schedule at specified intervals or times.

Schedule Options

Configure when your workflow runs:

  • Every X Minutes: Run at minute intervals (1-1440)
  • Hourly: Run at a specific minute each hour
  • Daily: Run at a specific time each day
  • Weekly: Run on a specific day and time each week
  • Monthly: Run on a specific day and time each month

Use cron expressions for advanced scheduling:

0 9 * * 1-5 - Every weekday at 9 AM
*/15 * * * * - Every 15 minutes
0 0 1 * * - First day of each month

Activation

Schedules are tied to workflow deployment:

  • Deploy workflow → Schedule becomes active and starts running
  • Undeploy workflow → Schedule is removed
  • Redeploy workflow → Schedule is recreated with current configuration

You must deploy your workflow for the schedule to start running. Configure the schedule block, then deploy from the toolbar.

Automatic Disabling

Schedules automatically disable after 100 consecutive failures to prevent runaway errors. When disabled:

  • A warning badge appears on the schedule block
  • The schedule stops executing
  • Click the badge to reactivate the schedule

Schedule blocks cannot receive incoming connections and serve as workflow entry points only.
