Scheduled

Use the Start Scheduled node to run a flow on a recurring interval, a weekly weekday and time, or a one-time timestamp, with an IANA timezone.

Scheduled

Start Scheduled (startScheduled) is a start node. Drop it on the canvas instead of Start when the platform should fire the flow without an API call or webhook.

A flow still has a single start node. You cannot combine scheduled and manual starts on the same graph.

Configure

Select the Start Scheduled node. The sidebar exposes:

FieldUse
Schedule typeRecurring, Weekly, or One-time
IntervalRecurring only: value plus unit (Minutes, Hours, or Days)
Weekday and timeWeekly only: ISO weekday plus hour and minute in the chosen timezone
Run atOne-time timestamp
TimezoneIANA name such as UTC or Europe/Istanbul

Runtime persists a cron expression for recurring and weekly, or runAt for one-time. Missing both a schedule and runAt fails the start node.

After it fires

Each tick creates a run with triggerSource schedule. Inspect executions in Run History.

To also start the same logic from code, prefer a Start node plus API, or keep a scheduled flow and a separate API flow.

Examples

  • Recurring: every 1 day at the configured timezone, pull yesterday's rows and email a summary.
  • Weekly: every Monday at 09:00 Europe/Istanbul.
  • One-time: runAt for a launch checklist that should not repeat.
  • Manual for on-demand runs
  • API to trigger a non-scheduled graph from your backend
  • Usage & Cost before a high-frequency interval
