# Schedules

A series of things to be done or of events to occur at or during a particular time or period. In the context of cfxOIA RDA pipelines construct, a schedule is a particular time or period that project admins preconfigure in order to run a pipeline or pipelines.

Schedules allow admins to perform nightly or periodic job execution for data updates and/or the periodic collection or to perform a logical task (e.g. Nagios alert enrichment or CMDB data collection or vROps attributes enrichment, etc).

cfxOIA RDA provides 'Schedules' functionality allowing users to define/create schedules to perform periodic execution of pipelines. The following screenshot depicts 'Schedules' UI functionality:

Schedule Name, Description, Continue On Pipeline failure, Frequency, Cron Expression, etc. 

Users can add schedules using the '+' action button provided on the main landing page of 'Schedules' UI as shown below.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://oiadocs.cloudfabrix.io/features-guide/rda/explore/schedules.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
