The Every Hour (Cron) trigger is a convenient way to schedule a workflow to run automatically every hour. This trigger allows you to set up a recurring hourly execution for your workflows, similar to a traditional cron job. It can be particularly useful for automating tasks or processes that need to be executed on an hourly basis.
This is the only input field for this trigger. Here, you can choose the appropriate time zone for your scheduled
trigger. The available time zones are listed, including popular options like UTC, America/New_York, Europe/London,
Asia/Shanghai, and others.
This trigger does not have any specific outputs since its purpose is to initiate the execution of a workflow every hour. The outputs will depend on the workflow itself and the actions it performs.
The Every Hour (Cron) trigger can be useful in various scenarios where you need to automate recurring hourly tasks or processes. Here are some potential use cases:
- Data Synchronization: Schedule a workflow to synchronize data between different systems or databases on an hourly basis.
- Notifications: Send out hourly notifications or reminders to users or customers for time-sensitive events or updates.
- Web Scraping: Scrape data from websites or APIs on an hourly basis for real-time data collection or analysis.
