Hi,
Currently I set my trigger daily.
But I want my trigger from Monday until Friday only. Not Saturday and Sunday.
How to set it?
Hi @uyin_85,
To set a trigger that runs from Monday to Friday, you can use the Pipedream’s cron scheduler to specify the days of the week you want your workflow to run. Here’s how you can set it up:
- Go to your Pipedream workflow.
- Click on the trigger at the top of the workflow.
- Select the Cron Scheduler.
- Use a cron expression that specifies the days of the week. For Monday to Friday, you can use the following expression:
0 0 * * 1-5.
This cron expression means the trigger will run at midnight (00:00) every day from Monday (1) to Friday (5).
If you need to set a specific time, adjust the first two numbers in the expression. For example, 0 9 * * 1-5 would run the trigger at 9 AM (09:00) from Monday to Friday.
Remember to save your changes, and your workflow will now only trigger on weekdays.

If i want set cron 8:30am, 12:30pm and 10:30pm daily except Saturday and Sunday, how?
I set cron 30 10,14,16,20 * * 1-5
But why 2:30pm triggered? I want 10:30am, 2:00pm, 4:30pm and 8:00pm trigger
30 means at the half hour mark. 14 means 2pm. so that’s 2:30pm.
For what you want now, you’ll need two triggers:
- On the half hour mark:
30 10,16 * * 1-5 - On the hour mark:
0 14,20 * * 1-5
I had the same issue with my triggers. What worked for me was tweaking the schedule settings. Just go to the trigger settings, look for the schedule option, and set it to run only on weekdays (Monday to Friday).
