Schedule Overview#

The Schedule app in Pipedream is a powerful tool that allows you to trigger workflows at regular intervals, ranging from every minute to once a year. This enables the automation of repetitive tasks and the scheduling of actions to occur without manual intervention. By leveraging this API, you can execute code, run integrations, and process data on a reliable schedule, all within Pipedream's serverless environment.

      ],
      default: {
        cron: "0 11 * * *",
      },
    },
  },

UiPath Automation Hub Overview#

The UiPath Automation Hub API allows you to interact with the automation lifecycle management platform. With this API, you can create, manage, and deploy automation tasks using UiPath's comprehensive toolset. On Pipedream, leverage this API to kick off robotic process automation (RPA) workflows, synchronize automation initiatives with your project management tools, or even gather valuable insights on your automations' performance and impact.
