Time

The Time Trigger starts a task at a specific date and time with an optional repeating interval. The following options are available in the configuration dialog:

  • Start Date: the date when the task should run for the first time
  • Start Time: the time of the day when the task should be executed
  • Repeat: the interval in which the task should repeatedly be executed

The Start Time will also be used for every future repetition of this task. It is not possible to construct multiple executions per day with a single Time Trigger.

To achieve multiple executions per day you can duplicate the Trigger and modify it for every additional starting time or use the more powerful Cron Trigger.

Repeat

Sets the repeating interval with the following options

  • One-time: triggers the task once at the start date and time
  • Daily: triggers the task every day at the start time from the start date on
  • Monday-Friday: triggers the task on every day from Monday to Friday at the start time
  • Weekly: triggers the task once a week on the weekday of the start date at the start time
  • Two Weeks*: triggers the task every two weeks on the weekday of the start date at the start time
  • Monthly*: triggers the task once a month at the start time. An additional option On is available to specify the day of the month.
  • Quarterly*: triggers the task every three months on the day of month of the start date at the start time.
  • Yearly: triggers the task once a year on the start date at the start time
