Scheduler Setup

The scheduler automatically downloads today's bhavcopy at a set time every day — without you having to open GetBhavCopy manually.

How it works

When you enable the scheduler in Settings, GetBhavCopy registers an OS-level task:

• Mac — LaunchAgent (runs even after restart)
• Windows — Task Scheduler (runs even after restart)
• Linux — crontab entry

Setup

1. Open GetBhavCopy
2. Click Settings → Scheduler
3. Toggle Enable Scheduled Downloads ON
4. Set your download time (e.g. 16:00 for 4 PM)
5. Click Save Settings

Recommended time

NSE closes at 15:30 IST. Set the scheduler to 16:00 IST or later to ensure all data is available.

Verifying it works

On Mac, check:

launchctl list | grep getbhavcopy

On Windows, open Task Scheduler and look for GetBhavCopyScheduler.
