Interval Schedule (Cron) Trigger

The Scheduled Interval Trigger is a versatile feature within BuildShip that facilitates workflow automation at regular intervals. With this trigger, you can define specific time intervals and units, allowing you to streamline tasks and processes based on your requirements.

How to Use Scheduled Interval Trigger

Configuring the Scheduled Interval Trigger involves the following fields:

• Interval (Unit in digits): Set the numeric value that represents the interval at which your workflow should trigger.

• Time Unit: Choose the appropriate time unit (e.g., seconds, minutes, hours) for your interval. This unit defines the duration between successive triggers.

Setting up the Scheduled Interval Trigger

To set up a Scheduled Interval Trigger in your BuildShip workflow, follow these steps:

• Go to the Connect tab and pick the Interval Schedule (Cron) trigger.

• Configure the fields within the Interval Schedule Trigger. You can choose the desired Interval, and time units for your trigger as given in the above sections.

Connection and Testing

Once the basic configuration is done, click on the “Connect” button. If connected successfully, the button shows success.

You can test out your built workflow using the Workflow Testing option in the Build tab. This allows you to simulate the workflow execution and verify the expected outputs.

Input / Output Mapping and Get Data

This trigger does not have any input/ output to mapping as it is a schedule-based trigger.
