Execution Windows and Days for Integration Jobs

Our Clients often prefer to limit how often their internal systems are queried and don't see value in our integration jobs running outside specific windows or days.  So we would like to see the ability to set a run window for jobs that run multiple times a day.  An example would be an inventory job that runs only between 8 am and 5 pm for example.  Additionally, our clients have requested that you limit the days that a job runs.  So, for example, I only want the job to run Monday through Friday.

    Great news! Our team has added a new feature in October 2024 release to assist with scheduling:

    • Updated jobs to support CRON scheduling. This adds the following columns to the JobDefinition table:

      • RecurringAdvancedMode – Type: bit (stores Boolean values, 0 or 1). Constraints: NOT NULL with a default value of 0 via the constraint

      • RecurringCronExpression – Type: nvarchar(200) (stores up to 200 Unicode characters)

    We also feel this is a need. We run into resource issues on full update jobs overnight that could be solved by having certain jobs run only during business hours.

    Absolutely agree. Some changes in data only occur during business hours when those operators are on duty. I would think it would benefit Optimizely to not have unnecessary processing activity as well.

    Moving this request back to future consideration, as it a partner indicated that it is still an issue that our partners are facing.

    Marking as "Will not implement" because this request is out of date and obsolete.

    This is very much needed.
