Setting Up a Schedule

The Schedule tab is where you tell Fetchit! when to run an event.

Trigger Modes

ModeWhat it does
TimedRuns automatically based on days, months, hours, and minutes you select.
Runs AfterRuns automatically after another named event finishes successfully.
Runs at StartupRuns once every time Fetchit! launches.
Manual OnlyOnly runs when you click Run yourself.
DisabledWon't run under any circumstances until you change this.

Setting a Timed Schedule

Select days of the week, months, days of the month, hours, and minutes. Fetchit! runs the event whenever all conditions match simultaneously.

💡

Tip: Be thoughtful about minutes. Selecting all 60 minutes means the event runs every minute of every selected hour.

Chaining Events with "Runs After"

Link events into a pipeline — when event A finishes, event B starts automatically. Choose "Runs After" and pick the upstream event from the dropdown.

⚠️

"Runs After" only triggers on success. If the upstream event fails, the downstream event won't run.
