The Every Month (Cron) trigger allows you to schedule a workflow to run at a specific time on the chosen days of the month. This trigger provides flexibility in scheduling workflows that need to be executed on specific dates within a month, such as the 1st and 15th, or any other custom combination of dates.
This input field allows you to select the day(s) of the month when you want your workflow to be triggered. You can choose one or multiple days from the available options (1st to 31st).
In this field, you can specify the time of day when the workflow should be executed on the selected day(s). The options are presented in a dropdown menu.
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 at the scheduled time and day(s) of the month. The outputs will depend on the workflow itself and the actions it performs.
The "Every Month (Cron)" trigger can be useful in various scenarios where you need to automate recurring tasks or processes that need to be executed on specific dates within a month. Here are some potential use cases:
- Billing and Invoicing: Automate billing processes, generate invoices, or send payment reminders on specific dates each month.
- Email Notifications: Send out monthly notifications or reminders to users or customers on specific dates, such as subscription renewals or account updates.
- User Management: Perform monthly user account maintenance tasks, such as deactivating inactive accounts or updating user data, on specific dates.
