A Scheduled Trigger runs a Job on a repeated schedule. You can set the schedule using a CRON expression or an interval.

Scheduled Triggers do not trigger Jobs in the DEV Environment. When you're working locally you should use the Test feature to trigger any scheduled Jobs.

​
Interval

This job will run every 60 seconds, starting 60 seconds after this Job is first indexed. Note that it does not run at the top of every minute, but rather 60 seconds after the Job is first indexed.

import { Job, intervalTrigger } from "@trigger.dev/sdk";

client.defineJob({
  id: "scheduled-job-1",
  name: "Scheduled Job 1",
  version: "0.1.1",
  trigger: intervalTrigger({
    seconds: 60,
  }),
  run: async (payload, io, ctx) => {
    await io.logger.info("Received the scheduled event", {
      payload,
    });

    return { foo: "bar" };
  },
});

​
Using CRON syntax

If you want a Job to run at a specific time or on a specific day of the week, you can use a CRON expression.

This job will run at 2:30pm every Monday. You can get help with CRON syntax.

These are not in local time, they are UTC.
import { Job, cronTrigger } from "@trigger.dev/sdk";

client.defineJob({
  id: "scheduled-job-2",
  name: "Scheduled Job 2",
  version: "0.1.1",
  trigger: cronTrigger({
    cron: "30 14 * * 1",
  }),
  run: async (payload, io, ctx) => {
    await io.logger.info("Received the scheduled event", {
      payload,
    });

    return { foo: "bar" };
  },
});
