scheduling an automation at specific time

[LiorT]

hello everyone,
I am looking for an option for scheduling an automation at a specific day and time
i'll explain:
i have app on qlik cloud and i want to build a trigger that will reload the app twice a month:
1) on the 1st of each month at 09:00
2) at the 15th of each month at 09:00

is there any option to do this?
i tried in the block "start" but this block just have specific times

thanks!

Hello @LiorT , is there any reason why you don't what to use the scheduler in the Management Console for these app reloads?

After all, I edited the timing through Management Console, but I imagined a possibility where the "Start" block also has options for scheduling specific.
In fact, my client wanted me to create a capability for him only through the automation without using the application itself .
My goal with it is that the "start" block will give the command to start running the application that actually exports a QVD file to me in the end.

You could have the automation update the schedule based on the current date. Run it manually once, then it becomes scheduled:

See attached automation for details.

Another solution could be to have an external script triggering the automation when you want it to run.

Hi Lior, we announced a fully integrated external management platform for Qlik called Harmony for Qlik and Symphony for Qlik. Harmony to manage the estate, and Symphony to manage scheduled tasks and they both are 100% built around Qlik 'Manage' APIs and work brilliantly. Very happy to share.

PS Both are ideal for Qlik OEMs to create a tenant hydrate with apps etc and populate users (using AD IDs, eg via MS Graph API, & groups)

Symphony has CRON logic and rules based logic to that can be applied to schedules. This means that apps that are person dependent can be set to not run when they are not in the office. Great for ESG
