Scheduled Triggers
Introduction
Hasura Scheduled Triggers is a powerful feature that allows you to schedule tasks or events in your application based on specific time intervals. It is a trigger-based system that executes tasks at predefined intervals, specified in a cron-like syntax.
How Hasura Scheduled Triggers Work
Hasura Scheduled Triggers work by executing a webhook at a specified time interval. A webhook is an HTTP callback that is triggered by an event. When the webhook is triggered, it sends a request to the specified endpoint, which then executes the task or event defined.
