Flexible Scheduling Options

released

Victor Arieta

I need more flexibility in scheduling jobs, such as running jobs multiple times overnight or during weekends and stopping during business hours.

On the Trigger node in Distro, toggle on On Scheduled (the in-app label for the Scheduled Trigger). A Schedule Type section then appears with three options:

Recurring Schedule – the Distro Flow runs once a day. Set the Time for Flow to start and the Timezone for that daily run;
Specific Date – the Distro Flow runs once, at a chosen date and time. Set the Date for Flow to start, Time for Flow to start, and Timezone;
On Demand – the Distro Flow does not run automatically. You start each run yourself, either from the Distro Flow UI or via the Edge API / MCP.
