Schedules
This guide will show you how to create and manage your scheduled tasks.
Login to the Panel
- Login to the panel, see Access the Panel for instructions.
- Navigate to the server you wish to configure.
Navigate to Schedules
- On the left menu, find and click on the 1 Schedules tab.
- Click on the 2 Create Schedule button to start creating your scheduled task.
Configure the Schedule
- Once the Create Schedule window has appeared, you will see a form where you can set up a schedule.
- 1 Name of your Schedule. Preferably something that describes it.
- 2 Set the time and date of the schedule, see crontab.guru for easy configuration. The image below will demonstrate 00:00 every day.
- 3 Toggle if schedule should only execute if your server is online or also offline.
- 4 Toggle to enable/disable the schedule. This is useful if you want to stop a schedule but keep it for later use temporarily.
- Click the 5 Create schedule button in the bottom right corner to save and exit.
- To get familiarized with the cron syntax, check out crontab.guru. It provides examples and a tool to test it out. The scheduler runs in UTC, so keep that in mind as you create time-specific schedules.
Add a Task to your Schedule
- Once the Schedule has been created, click it to open the Create Task interface.
- Then, click Add Task to add a task.
- The create task UI can be broken down into multiple parts:
- Action: Sending a command to the console or a power action (shutdown/force shutdown, restart, start).
- Time offset: This can be considered a “delay”, which is useful when chaining tasks in a schedule.
- Payload: The option or command a task should execute. If you were running a console command, you would type the input there.
- Continue on failure: Do you want the task to stop trying when it fails?
- Click on the Create Task button.
Review your Schedule
- You will be directed to the schedule overview for the newly created Schedule.
- You can also see when your Schedule last ran.
