Modes
Run Schedules can be defined in two ways:
- Standard: For simple schedule frequencies, such as daily, hourly or weekly.
- Cron Expression: For complex schedules with the full power of cron.
Each of these options allows the selection of a Timezone to specify which timezones the times selected belong in.
Standard Options
- Hourly: "At minute 0" each hour
- Daily: At a specified hour each day
- Weekly: At a specified hour on a specific day each week
Cron expressions
If you need more flexibility on when your monitors should run - for example, scheduling your monitors to run on a specific hour or weekdays only - you can create a new schedule with Cron Expressions.
