On schedule
A pipeline can be triggered automatically based on a schedule — at a specific time or at regular intervals.
There are two modes available:
- Simple – quick time interval setup.
- Cron – advanced schedules using cron expressions.
Simple mode
In Simple mode, you can configure the pipeline to run every:
- 1 minute
- 5 minutes
- 15 minutes
- 30 minutes
- 1 hour
- 3 hours
- 6 hours
- 8 hours
- 12 hours
- 1 day
- 7 days
Additionally, you can specify when the schedule should start — from today up to 7 days ahead.
Example: daily run at 5:00 PM:

Cron mode
Cron mode allows you to create advanced schedules using cron syntax. The cron expression consists of five fields: minute
hour
day_of_month
month
day_of_week
Cron syntax

Hint
Cron expressions are interpreted according to the time zone set in your account. You can override this setting for a given trigger by selecting a different time zone.
