Triggers and schedules - Aura Help Center

Glass clock, calendar, lightning bolt and link around a start button

Open the Triggers tab to choose what starts your Agent. Turn on as many as you like.

Trigger	What it does
When you press run	Always available. Starts a run from Run now.
On a schedule	Runs by itself at the times you pick — every few minutes, daily, weekdays, monthly. Read in your own time zone.
From a chat	You or Aura can hand it a job mid-conversation.
When a connected app does something	New email, new order, new row — the app tells the Agent instantly.
From a web address	Gives the Agent a private link. Anything that can send a request (a form, Zapier, your own app) can start it.
Quiet check-ins between runs	Takes a short look on its own and only speaks up or acts if something’s worth it. Check-ins slow down when nothing happens and speed back up when something does.

Events filtered before reaching the Agent

Booked one-time runs

Ask “remind me at 3:15 PM to check the shipment” or “run this tomorrow at 9” and the Agent books an exact-time run. You’ll see it under Booked one-time runs in Triggers.

Incoming webhooks

The Incoming webhooks panel shows what can send events to the Agent and everything it has received, so you can confirm deliveries.

What happens if it’s busy?

An Agent never runs twice at once. If a scheduled time arrives while it’s still working, that tick is queued and runs once it finishes — nothing is skipped silently and nothing overlaps.

Can it run every minute?

Yes, schedules can be as frequent as every minute. Frequent runs use more credits.

Can I change the schedule from chat?

Yes: “run this at 7 AM instead”. The Agent only changes timing when you mention timing.
