Hi community,

    Hi @deerzzxdell ,

     

    Currently, PAD does not include the scheduling functionality itself. However, you can consider creating a separate executable desktop icon for your desktop flow and then create a script to run it periodically, which you can refer to in this thread:

    Best Regards,

    Bof
