Duy Truong: I want to schedule for daily at specific time to trigger workflow. Does zeebe support this ? Any links on how to implement that would be great.
Milan Lesnek: you can set up timer event with set up like
R/P1D => every day, infinitely
https://docs.camunda.io/docs/0.25/product-manuals/zeebe/bpmn-workflows/timer-events/timer-events
however I would rather use simple cron to start the workflow/process, because you can see then every individual process in operate + when it fails one day, next day it could be ok and you can just retry your failed day
Duy Truong: how can I setup the cron? <@U01TSRALQS2>.
Milan Lesnek: it depends, you can use https://phoenixnap.com/kb/set-up-cron-job-linux|crontab on machine with linux, in k8s they have https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/workloads/controllers/cron-jobs/|cronjob, aws has some cloudwatch
saig0: In Camunda Cloud, Cron is not supported yet. However, look at the related forum thread here: https://forum.camunda.io/t/timer-event-that-needs-to-start-every-tuesday/1863/7
