Schedule by Zapier

Automate tasks on your preferred timeline so they run exactly when you need them.

Schedule by Zapier: Automate your recurring tasks

Need a daily reminder to complete important tasks, or a way to ask your team each day about how their work is going? With this integration, it's easy. Just pick a daily schedule, draft a custom message, and Zapier will automatically send that email every day. 

Schedule is a native Zapier app you can use for recurring tasks. Trigger an action every day of the month, every day of the week or every single day. You can also select the hour of the day. If you're a developer, this is similar to a crontab, cronjob or cron.

Triggers at user-defined intervals (days, weeks, months)

Custom Frequency

Every Day

Every Hour

Triggers every month, on the day(s) selected.

Every Month

Triggers every week, on the day(s) selected.

Every Week

Send and receive email via a custom Zapier email address at "zapiermail.com". This is great for triggering off of emails and sending custom emails. (Max of 10 email sends per hour.)

Some tasks need to be completed weekly, but we might just need a gentle reminder. Spending most of our days in Slack communicating with our team makes it a great place to get those task reminders. Set up this integration and, with a little help from Zapier, you can automatically get that scheduled task in the Slack channel of your choice at the same time weekly.
