Scheduling recurring runs

Set an agent to run on a clock — every morning, every Monday, or any cadence you choose — so reports and syncs happen without you lifting a finger.

Last updated July 14, 2026

A schedule runs your agent on a repeating clock. It's the simplest way to automate work that needs to happen at a predictable time, like a daily briefing, a weekly sales roundup, or a nightly data sync.

You'll find schedules under the Automations tab of any agent.

Create a schedule

Open Automations

Go to your agent and open the Automations tab, then choose to add a schedule.

Pick a cadence

Choose how often it runs — hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly — and set the time of day.

Add instructions for the run

Tell the agent what to do each time it runs, for example "Summarize yesterday's new leads and email me the list."

Save and turn it on

The schedule starts running at the next matching time. You can toggle it off any time.

Timezones

Schedules run in your account's timezone, so "8:00 AM daily" means 8:00 AM where you are. If you travel or work across regions, double-check the time is set the way you expect.

Note. Give each run clear, self-contained instructions. A scheduled run doesn't remember what you typed in chat yesterday unless the agent stores it in Memory.

Good jobs for a schedule

  • Morning briefing — pull your calendar, unread priorities, and news into one summary.
  • Weekly report — roll up numbers from a CRM or spreadsheet every Monday.
  • Nightly sync — reconcile records between two connected tools while you sleep.
  • Recurring outreach — draft follow-ups for contacts that went quiet.

Managing schedules

You can add more than one schedule to the same agent — say, a quick hourly check and a fuller weekly report. Each runs on its own clock and can be paused independently. Turn a schedule off when you don't need it rather than deleting it, so it's easy to bring back.

Tip. After a few runs, check Activity to confirm the output is what you want, then adjust the cadence or instructions if needed.

Where results go

Each scheduled run is logged in Activity, and anything the agent produces is saved to Deliveries. If a run fails, it appears in Errors with details so you can fix the cause.
