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.
