Scheduling A Process

How can I schedule a process to run every last Friday of the month ? How Can I Use The API Trigger?

Cheers!

@yash.bidaye use orchestrator Time Trigger → Advanced and set Cron to run on the last Friday of every month.
Or use API Trigger (POST /odata/Jobs/UiPath.Server.Configuration.OData.StartJobs) to start the process programmatically.

Hello @yash.bidaye,

A process to run on the last Friday of every month, you can either do it directly in UiPath Orchestrator using a Cron expression or programmatically using the Orchestrator API.

The easiest way is through the UI: go to Automation → Triggers → Add Trigger, choose your process, select Advanced, and enter the Cron expression 0 0 10 ? * 6L, where 10 represents the hour (10:00 AM, which you can adjust as needed) and 6L means the last Friday of the month.

Hello @yash.bidaye

CRON Expression for last Friday of every month : 0 00 00 ? *6L (You can set time as per your requirement)

Ex.

0 00 09 ? * 6L

You read above topic for API Trigger

Can you please say it in simple words

Hello @yash.bidaye

Cron expression explanation :slight_smile:

0 → seconds = 0
00 → minutes
09 → hour = 09 AM (you can change as needed)
? → day of month

  • → every month
    6L→ last Friday (6 = Friday, L = last)

Reagards,
