Scheduled Execution

Schedule tools to run automatically at specific times or intervals. Scheduled executions run in the background and log results for later review.

Creating a schedule

Section titled “Creating a schedule”

Create schedules from the dashboard:

  1. Open schedule modal

    Navigate to your tool and click “Add Schedule”

  2. Configure frequency

    Choose from preset intervals (every 5 minutes, hourly, daily, weekly, monthly) or enter a custom cron expression

    Common cron examples:

    • */5 * * * * - Every 5 minutes
    • 0 9 * * 1-5 - Weekdays at 9 AM
    • 0 0 1 * * - First day of every month
    • 0 */6 * * * - Every 6 hours

  3. Select timezone

    Choose your timezone to ensure the schedule runs at the correct local time

  4. Set input payload (optional)

    Provide JSON input data that will be passed to each execution

  5. Save and enable

    Click “Add Schedule” to save. The schedule will start running at the next scheduled time. You can pause it anytime by toggling “Enable schedule” off.

Managing schedules

Section titled “Managing schedules”

Viewing schedules

Section titled “Viewing schedules”

All schedules for a tool are visible on the tool details page. Each schedule shows:

  • Cron expression and human-readable description
  • Timezone
  • Next scheduled run time
  • Last run time and status
  • Enable/disable toggle

Modifying schedules

Section titled “Modifying schedules”

Click on any schedule to modify:

  • Change the cron expression
  • Update the timezone
  • Modify the input payload
  • Enable or disable the schedule

Deleting schedules

Section titled “Deleting schedules”

Remove a schedule by clicking the delete button. This stops all future executions but preserves historical run logs.

Execution behavior

Section titled “Execution behavior”
  • Reliability: Schedules are executed by a dedicated scheduler service with automatic failover
  • Logging: Every scheduled execution creates a run record with full logs
  • Source tracking: Scheduled runs are labeled with source SCHEDULE in the runs table
  • Error handling: Failed scheduled runs are logged but don’t automatically retry (configure retries in the schedule options)

Advanced options

Section titled “Advanced options”

When creating a schedule, expand “Advanced Options” to configure:

  • Retries: Number of retry attempts (0-10) for failed API calls
  • Timeout: Maximum execution time in milliseconds
  • Webhook: Send execution results to a URL or trigger another tool when complete
