Hi @danielspalma,
Great question. Scheduled and delayed actions in Pro are handed off to Action Scheduler, and in the settings you can use the Background Actions setting to move some actions to a queue.
Additional control over queueing is coming but not available yet. My tentative guess is that it’s about 2 months away; work has started but it’s still in the early stages.
Wow, great to know @uncannyautomator !
I’ll go Pro, so.
Does the pro have the option to send emails in a period of time only? I mean… not beetween dates but, for example, from 8am to 18pm.
If not, can you open a internal request for this feature?
Thanks!
Hi @danielspalma ,
Right now Automator supports conditions where you could say “only send an email for this recipe if it’s between 8 AM and 6 PM”, but if it’s outside those hours, it would drop the email. In other words, it can’t queue it and wait until 8 AM to send the queued email, with our time conditions, it the condition is met, it just won’t run.
The functionality I mentioned us adding in about 2 months will be closer to a scenario where we would run X things, wait Y seconds, then run X more.
