Hi,
Took a look through the posts but didn't see this.

Case:
People register in a google form.
Every Friday (or another interval) I would like to AUTOMATICALLY email myself a pdf. 

I have set the workflow, which is rather simple and works fine. But how do a tell it to automatically send on specific day (or delay), and to continue to run without me needed to execute the script?

I tried adding a loop and a timer (wait for 'x' minutes) but I don't think I placed the loop right - or even if that is the way to do it. 

Side note: I copied the Repeat example - but in the actual example the repeat function isn't used.

Thanks,
- Peter

Hi Peter,
timed triggers and repeating triggers are not yet supported.
We are working on making them available very soon.
Stay tuned!

Thanks, Daniel.

Just started diving into Ultradox - great stuff - already can find tons of use cases for it. It would be a game-changer with timed and repeating triggers to send updates and reports to teams on a daily or weekly basis. 

Keep up the good work!

Hi Peter,
I've added repeated timers. You'll find a timer icon in the main toolbar now.

Cheers,
Daniel
