Schedules
Open the Scheduled tab to see every saved schedule you can manage.Create a schedule

Start a schedule
Select New schedule and choose the workflow. Give the schedule a label (up to 120
characters).
2
Choose when
- Hourly — at the minute you choose, every hour;
- Daily — at the hour and minute you choose;
- Weekly — on the days you choose, at the hour and minute you choose.
3
Set the timezone
Enter an IANA timezone such as
Europe/London or America/New_York. The schedule follows local
time, including daylight-saving changes.4
Create it
Leave Start enabled on to arm it now, then select Create schedule.
Manage a schedule
- The row’s switch turns the schedule on or off without deleting it.
- Edit changes when it runs. Delete stops its future runs; past runs keep their receipts.
- Run now starts a production run immediately, as you, using your own connected accounts. It is refused, with the reason, when the workflow is not deployed or is paused.
Whose accounts a schedule uses
A scheduled run acts as the member who created the schedule, through their connected accounts, and only while they still have the Operator role or higher. The schedule is pinned to the release that member scheduled and follows their own later deploys. If someone else’s release becomes live, the schedule stops and waits for its owner to review and turn it back on — nobody’s accounts run a version they have not seen. An admin can turn another member’s schedule off, but never on.Schedule triggers
A workflow whose trigger is Schedule runs on the trigger’s own cadence, in UTC, once deployed — but only while it has no saved schedules. Saved schedules work with any trigger and take over from the trigger’s cadence.Public forms
A public form lets anyone with its link submit the form without a Hive account. Each submission starts one production run.Publish a form link
1
Use a Public form trigger
Select the trigger, choose Public form, add the title and fields, and optionally a
confirmation message. See Triggers.
2
Deploy
Deploy the workflow.
3
Create the link
Select Form link in the builder header, then Create form link.
4
Copy and share
The link is shown only while the dialog is open. If you need it again later, create a new one.
/forms?token=… on your Hive app address. To submit from your
own site or another system instead, use the public form API.
When a link stops working
A link belongs to the release that was live when it was created. It stops working when:- a new link is created;
- the workflow is deployed again, or another version is re-activated;
- the workflow is paused, returned to draft or deleted;
- the workflow’s owner can no longer run it.
Runs from a form
A submission runs as the workflow owner, through the owner’s connected accounts, and its actions go through your approval and safety policy like any other production run. A workflow started by a public form cannot run a Saved agent step. Submissions are kept with the workflow, so a member with the Operator role or higher can replay one of the last 20 in a test run from the trigger’s Test tab.Related
