Schedule a notebook

You can schedule your notebooks to run on a cadence so that your notebook results are refreshed with the most current data.

To schedule a notebook to run periodically:

  1. In the notebook, click Schedule at the top right. If no jobs exist for this notebook, the Schedule dialog appears.

    If jobs already exist for the notebook, the Jobs List dialog appears. To display the Schedule dialog, click Add a schedule.

  2. In the Schedule dialog, optionally enter a name for the job. The default name is the name of the notebook.

  3. Select Simple to run your job on a simple schedule, such as every day, or Advanced to define a custom schedule for running the job, such as a specific time every day. Use the drop-downs to specify the frequency. If you choose Advanced, you can also use cron syntax to specify the frequency.

  4. In the Compute drop-down, select the compute resource to run the task.

  5. Optionally, under More options, you can specify email addresses to receive Alerts on job events.

  6. Optionally, under More options, enter any Parameters to pass to the job. Click Add and specify the key and value of each parameter. Parameters set the value of the notebook widget specified by the key of the parameter. Use dynamic value references to pass a limited set of dynamic values as part of a parameter value.

  7. Click Create.
