Biweekly Custom Schedule Trigger

bhavesh-patel — Fri, 26 Aug 2022 14:48:59 GMT

How can we schedule a trigger which runs Bi-weekly? For example if it is run today then next will run on after 14 days (2 weeks).

I have tried using UI, by setting week as time unit. Is that the right approach or is there any better option to achieve the requirement?

I have attach the screenshot of my configuration below.

Also I can do it with custom schedule (cron job expression) but there I couldn't found anything for biweekly.

If anyone can guide me, let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Bhavesh, how many times a week is it required to run?

In your configuration it will run every day on every second week.

It requires to run one time per 2 week. For ex - if it ran on 26-08 friday then next should run on 10-09 saturday. Exactly after 14 days.

Hi Bhavesh, Time Unit - Weeks, Tigger every - 2 , Days of the Week - choose on which day you need to trigger, Trigger at - choose time

Thanks.
