Profile schedule

How to run the conversion via cron and distinguish it from the source schedule.

A profile schedule triggers a conversion, catalog import, or synchronization. It does not download the source by itself unless the source was updated by a separate schedule.

When to use

Use a profile schedule when the result should be generated automatically after configuration.

Setting procedure

  1. Open your profile and schedule block.
  2. Set minutes, hours, days of the month, months and days of the week.
  3. Enable schedule status.
  4. Check the next launch date in the Scheduler.
  5. Set up start, end and error notifications.

What to check

  • The source is updated before the profile runs if the data needs to be fresh.
  • The next start corresponds to the working time of the process.
  • The profile successfully passes the manual test before scheduling is enabled.

Notes

  • A source plus profile chain typically requires two schedules.
  • If there are insufficient credits, the profile may go into a partial or stopped scenario depending on the billing settings.
