Scheduled actions

Ask the Copilot to do something later or on a schedule, and manage those tasks in one place.

Scheduled actions are tasks the Copilot runs for you at a set time, once or on repeat. You create them by talking to the Copilot, for example “send a coupon to dormant customers Friday 8am” or “every morning at 9, show me the brief”. You confirm once, and the rest is automatic. Review them in Settings › Scheduled Actions.

The Scheduled Actions page

FailedTasks that hit an error, with the error text.

AllEverything.

Each task shows its status (pending, running, completed, failed or cancelled), how often it runs (Once, Daily, Weekly or Monthly), how many times it has run, and its next run, last run or creation time.

Cancel a task

Click Cancel on any upcoming task and confirm. Only pending tasks can be cancelled, and you need permission to run Copilot actions.

How tasks run

  • Repeating tasks go back to Upcoming after each run, even if one run fails.
  • One-time tasks that fail are marked Failed.
  • Permissions are checked again when the task runs, so a task cannot do more than the person who created it.
Scheduled actions need access to the Copilot. They are different from campaigns: to message many customers at a set time, see Campaigns.
