Hey @wdescalsota !! You can Schedule your job in Orchestrator To Run in your condition with this Cron
0 0 0-8 ? * * *
To build a specific expression useu this website Free Online Cron Expression Generator and Describer - FreeFormatter.com
In this case this job will run every hour between 00 and 8 hrs.
But if you want a more dynamic way, just start a trigger at 00. At the end of your code whenever it finishes executing, do a check to see if the current time is less than 8 am. If it is, start the job again with the “Start Job” activity.
Hope it helps!!

Hi, @wdescalsota,
Just giving more details to @gabrielribas4 's great answer…
To schedule in Orchestrator go to Automations tab, then Triggers tab and finally click on Add a new trigger.
Leave Time selected.
Then select Advanced and enter the Cron expression you want.
