FAQPage Schema
How do I schedule a one-off task to run at a specific date and time?

To schedule a one-off task, you create an ad-hoc action with a specific date and time using a flexible payload type such as skill, prompt, or script. The system normalizes time zones and parses dates to execute the task precisely.

What is the difference between scheduling a one-off task and a recurring workflow?

Scheduling a one-off task targets a precise, single execution moment for ad-hoc actions, whereas recurring workflows handle repeated actions. One-off tasks manage reminders, reports, or automation without manual follow-up, tracking a clear lifecycle from pending to completed.

Can I route a scheduled task to a specific agent using a prompt payload?

Yes, you can schedule a one-off task using a prompt payload and apply optional agent routing. This allows the task execution to target a specific agent across multiple agents and time zones when the scheduled time arrives.

How do I manage and update scheduled tasks through the API?

You manage scheduled tasks through exposed API endpoints supporting GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, and RUN operations. These endpoints allow you to create, list, update, and execute one-off tasks while applying time-zone normalization and date-parsing rules.

What payload types are supported for ad-hoc task automation?

Ad-hoc task automation supports flexible payload types including skill, prompt, and script. These payloads define the specific action executed at the scheduled date and time, enabling diverse use cases like reminders and reports.

Does scheduling one-off tasks require complex time-zone normalization setups?

No, scheduling one-off tasks includes built-in time-zone normalization and date-parsing rules. The system automatically handles time conversions, allowing you to schedule tasks across multiple agents and time zones without manual calculation.
