GermainUX scheduling overview

GermainUX can execute actions and tasks automatically on a recurring schedule or at a specific time. Supported actions include:

Click and synthetic-user scenarios
HTTP actions
Local programs
Scripts
SQL queries
SSH commands
WMI commands

Configure a Schedule

You can define a schedule using the visual scheduler in the GermainUX Workspace or an advanced CRON expression.

Using the Visual Scheduler

Open the action you want to schedule in the GermainUX Workspace.
Enable Run on Schedule.
Use the scheduler to configure the execution frequency.

The visual scheduler supports common schedules, including:

Every minute
Hourly
Daily
Weekly
At specific times

Save the action after configuring its schedule.

Using a CRON Expression

For more advanced scheduling requirements, select the advanced scheduling option and enter a valid Quartz CRON expression. A Quartz CRON expression generally uses the following fields:

Seconds Minutes Hours Day-of-Month Month Day-of-Week [Year]

Verify the applicable time zone before enabling a production schedule.
