We just released a new user requested feature

One of our users came to us and asked us about enhancing how scheduling works inside Flowabl. It only allowed one schedule to trigger a workflow and you couldn't specify the inputs to feed into the Workflow.

Now scheduling has never been easier or more powerful. You can now schedule your Workflow to run with multiple Schedules; one time, every week, or quarterly. You can even specify different inputs with each Schedule.

This opens the door to many possibilities. You could schedule a Workflow to remind each of your employees quarterly about health and safety policies, follow up emails for onboarding an employee, or a weekly audit to extract and review data with a manual approval if rules aren’t met.

A Schedule can be set up to

• Run once: set a date and time in the future
• Recurring: set the time, timezone, and which days to run
• Recurring via cron expression: define the cron schedule and timezone.

You also have a whole new Calendar view to be able to see what Schedules are running when for what Workflows.

💡 Did you know we use this ourselves? When a new user joins Flowabl we trigger a workflow with an event via a serverless function. The quotas get updated based on the plan chosen and we send a friendly welcome email. We then schedule another Workflow to run days later to send a follow-up email.

Head to flowabl.io and sign up for free early access. You can check it out live with no fuss. Or reach out and I would be happy to chat.
