What is Bulk Scheduling?
Bulk Scheduling allows you to set up and schedule multiple tasks for your Agent to run automatically.
How to Access Bulk Scheduling
-
Navigate to your Agent’s interface.
-
Go to the Run tab.
-
Click the dropdown menu next to the + New Task button and select Schedule in bulk.
Setting Up a Batch Schedule
-
Select a spreadsheet or knowledge table containing the data you want your Agent to process.
-
Enter a message template for your Agent. You can use the table’s column names as variables with double braces:
{{variable_name}}. -
Configure working hours to govern when tasks are executed.
Working Hours Settings
-
Timezone: Choose the correct timezone to align with when tasks should run.
-
Work days: Specify which days tasks should run (e.g., Monday–Friday).
-
Work hours: Set the time range for execution (or select “All day”).
-
Task distribution: Define how many tasks to schedule per interval/day.
-
Override mode: Option to run all created tasks in override mode (useful for testing).
Best Practices
-
Align working hours with your team’s availability to ensure timely handling of outputs.
-
Adjust tasks per interval based on task complexity and team capacity.
-
Start conservative (low volume) and increase as you evaluate performance.
Monitoring and Reviewing
-
After scheduling, you can review the status of your bulk schedules via the Run tab and the “Agent queue” in the task list view.
-
Monitor how tasks are executed to ensure distribution aligns with your schedule and capacity.
