Schedules

Learn how to manage schedules

The Schedules page lists the flows scheduled. These flows, if active, will be run according to their scheduling period, determined by cron job expressions, if the corresponding robot is connected and idle.

Schedule List

Create Schedule​

You can create a schedule to run a flow with specific intervals. To create a new schedule, press the "Add Schedule" button.

New Schedule

info

Only published flows can be scheduled and published flows can only be scheduled on Production Robots.

Actions​

Each schedule card carries two controls. The pause button sits next to the Active badge, and the Actions menu — the vertical dots — holds Edit and Delete.

Actions

Pause/Resume​

You can pause active schedules or resume paused ones with the pause button on the card. A paused schedule will be discarded when the scheduling period arrives even if the robot is connected and idle.

Edit​

Edit Schedule reopens the same dialog you filled in to create it, carrying the name, robots, priority and schedule period across.

Edit Schedule

Re-pick the flow, the version and the timezone

Flow and Version come back empty and Timezone resets to UTC-12:00, so set all three again before saving — otherwise the dialog will not submit, or it will save a timezone you did not choose. Check the Schedule Summary panel on the right, which spells out what is actually about to be saved.

info

It is recommended to create and publish a new version of your flow before scheduling so that you can roll back to a previous version in any case of an emergency.

Delete​

You can delete a scheduled flow. Delete will also remove all the pending schedules that are missed but are being waited to be run when the robot is ready.
