• Select which days of the week

Weekly

For advanced users, define a custom cron expression:

# Every day at midnight
0 0 * * *

# Every 6 hours
0 */6 * * *

Enabling/Disabling

You can temporarily disable a schedule without deleting it:

1. Go to your pipeline settings
2. Toggle the schedule off
3. The pipeline will stop running automatically but keep its schedule configuration

Run History

See when your pipeline last ran and its status:

1. Open your pipeline

3. View past runs, their status, and any errors

Best Practices

• Don’t schedule too frequently - Spotify has rate limits; running too often may cause failures
• Check run history - Monitor your pipelines to ensure they’re running successfully
• Use appropriate times - Schedule during off-peak hours if possible
