Connectors
Overview
A set of custom connectors used to power up automation capabilities.
Connectors
Cron Scheduled Connector
Description
A custom connector created to trigger playbooks by a given alert product, name
and type and enables editing the parameters according to your specific use
case. Allows the use of a cron expression.
Using the Run Every parameter, we recommend updating the connector's scheduled execution from 59 seconds to 1 hour
and the cron expression accordingly (* 16 * * FRI) to reflect the new schedule.
This change ensures that the connector code runs once every hour. The execution
is not guaranteed to occur exactly at the top of the hour—it will be triggered once at some point during the specified hour.
Configuration
To configure a connector, go to Settings -> Connectors -> Create New Connector and search for Cron Scheduled Connector.Parameters-
