Scheduled Runs

Scheduled runs remove the need to trigger a workflow manually. Once set, Felix runs the workflow on the schedule you define.

​

Setting a schedule

1. Open the workflow from your dashboard
2. Select Schedule from the Run dropdown menu
3. Choose a schedule:

4. Click Turn on schedule

​

How scheduled runs work

A scheduled run executes the workflow exactly as a manual run would. If the workflow includes a Human Checkpoint, the run pauses and Felix notifies the assigned person. The schedule continues as normal for future runs regardless of whether the paused run has been completed.

​

Pausing and stopping a schedule

• Pause — temporarily stop scheduled runs without deleting the schedule. Resume at any time.
• Delete — remove the schedule permanently. The workflow itself is not affected.

​

Monitoring scheduled runs

All scheduled runs appear in the workflow’s run history. If a scheduled run fails, Felix logs the error. The schedule continues — the next run triggers at the next scheduled time regardless.

​

Tips

• Test manually before scheduling. Confirm the output is correct before automating.
• Match the schedule to the data. If your workflow fetches data from the last 24 hours, a daily schedule makes sense.
• Use cron for precise timing. Weekdays only, twice a day, last day of the month — use a custom cron expression.
