How do I find and set a scheduled trigger?

Manual execution is a bottleneck. Scheduled triggers let your Playbooks run automatically on a cadence you control, whether daily, weekly, or at a custom interval, so your content workflows keep moving without manual input. This tutorial covers how to find, configure, and manage scheduled triggers in AirOps.

Key takeaways

  1. Scheduled triggers automate Playbook runs at set intervals; daily, weekly, monthly, and custom cadences are all supported.
  2. Attach inputs like Brand Kits, URLs, keywords, and date ranges to each scheduled run so the Playbook has everything it needs at execution time.
  3. A single Playbook can have multiple schedules, each covering a different cadence or purpose.
  4. Pausing a schedule preserves your configuration so you can resume without rebuilding.
  5. Keep your inputs current; outdated URLs or expired date ranges lead to stale results.

Tutorial overview

Scheduled triggers run your Playbooks automatically on a recurring cadence. Daily, weekly, or monthly. No manual clicks, no reminders, no missed runs. You configure the schedule once, and AirOps handles execution at the times you choose.

The trigger setup lives in your Playbook sidebar. Select a frequency and timezone, attach inputs like Brand Kits so every automated run uses the right context, and save. The activity log tracks each execution so you can verify results and troubleshoot failures without digging through run history manually.

Scheduled triggers work for daily content audits, weekly performance reports, monthly SEO refreshes, and any other repeatable task your team runs on a fixed cadence. Set it once, confirm the first few runs land correctly, and move on to higher-value work.

Practice

  1. Click the clock icon to open the Triggers panel

    The Triggers panel in AirOps Playbooks is opened by clicking the clock icon in the Playbook editor. It is where automation schedules and event-based triggers are configured for the Playbook.

  2. Select Schedule and configure version and inputs

    The Schedule trigger option in AirOps Playbooks allows configuring automated runs at set intervals. After selecting Schedule, choose the Playbook version and configure any required input values.

  3. Set frequency, run days, and time

    The schedule configuration fields in AirOps Playbook Triggers set the frequency, run days, and time for automated execution. These settings determine when the Playbook runs without manual intervention.

  4. Save Trigger and View the Configured Schedule

    Click Save Trigger to activate the schedule. The trigger appears in the Configured section and the Playbook begins running automatically at the set time. Each configured trigger entry shows the schedule details and provides options to edit or delete the automation.
