Product Overview

Scheduler Service - Hands-Free Workflow Automation

Artificio's Scheduler Service empowers organizations to automate their document processing workflows without manual intervention. From simple recurring tasks to complex multi-step pipelines, our intelligent scheduling engine ensures your workflows run reliably and efficiently. Define schedules using familiar cron patterns or intuitive visual interfaces, set up dependencies between tasks, and let our system handle the execution while you focus on what matters most.

  • Flexible Scheduling
    Define schedules using cron expressions, fixed intervals, or calendar-based patterns. Schedule jobs to run hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, or at custom intervals.
  • Batch Processing
    Process large volumes of documents in scheduled batches. Optimize resource utilization by running intensive tasks during off-peak hours automatically.
  • Workflow Orchestration
    Create complex workflows with task dependencies, conditional branching, and parallel execution. Build end-to-end automation pipelines with ease.
  • Real-Time Monitoring
    Track job execution in real-time with comprehensive dashboards. Receive instant alerts via email, SMS, or webhooks for job completions, failures, or anomalies.
  • Job History & Logs
    Maintain detailed execution logs and history for audit compliance. Review past runs, analyze performance trends, and troubleshoot issues with comprehensive logs.
  • API Integration
    Trigger scheduled jobs programmatically via REST APIs. Integrate with external systems, CI/CD pipelines, and third-party applications seamlessly.

Key Features

Powerful Scheduling Capabilities

Cron-Based Scheduling

Define precise schedules using industry-standard cron expressions or our intuitive visual scheduler. Set up complex recurring patterns like "every weekday at 9 AM" or "first Monday of each month at midnight" with ease. Our scheduler supports timezone-aware execution, ensuring your jobs run at the right time regardless of where your team is located.
Cron-Based Scheduling

Dependency Management

Build sophisticated workflows with task dependencies and conditional execution. Define which tasks must complete before others begin, set up parallel execution paths, and create conditional branches based on task outcomes. Our visual workflow builder makes it easy to design complex automation pipelines without writing code.
Dependency Management

Auto-Retry & Error Handling

Configure automatic retry policies for failed jobs with exponential backoff. Set up fallback actions, error notifications, and recovery procedures to ensure your workflows are resilient. Our intelligent error handling minimizes manual intervention while keeping you informed of any issues that require attention.
Auto-Retry & Error Handling

Resource Optimization

Automatically scale resources based on job requirements and schedules. Queue management ensures efficient resource utilization, while priority settings let critical jobs jump the queue when needed. Schedule resource-intensive tasks during off-peak hours to optimize costs and system performance.
Resource Optimization

Comprehensive Audit Trail

Maintain complete visibility into every scheduled execution with detailed audit logs. Track who created or modified schedules, when jobs ran, how long they took, and what outputs were produced. Meet compliance requirements with immutable audit trails and detailed execution histories.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How does the Scheduler Service connect to my document sources?
    The Scheduler connects to your existing document sources through our pre-built integrations. You can pull documents from cloud storage (AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob), email inboxes (Gmail, Outlook, IMAP), FTP/SFTP servers, SharePoint, Google Drive, Dropbox, and network file shares. Each scheduled job specifies the source location, and the Scheduler automatically retrieves new or modified documents based on your configured criteria.
  • Can I process documents from multiple sources in a single scheduled job?
    Yes. A single scheduled job can monitor and process documents from multiple input sources simultaneously. For example, you could configure a job that pulls invoices from your email inbox, vendor portal downloads, and a shared network folder, then processes them all through the same extraction and validation workflow. The Scheduler consolidates documents from all configured sources before passing them to your processing pipeline.
  • What scheduling frequencies are supported?
    You can schedule jobs to run as frequently as every 5 minutes or as infrequently as once per month. Choose from preset intervals (every 15 minutes, hourly, daily at a specific time, weekly, monthly) or define custom schedules using cron expressions for advanced patterns like "every Tuesday and Thursday at 9 AM" or "the first business day of each month." All schedules are timezone-aware, so jobs execute at the correct local time regardless of server location.
  • How do I know when a scheduled job completes or fails?
    Configure real-time notifications for any job status change. Receive alerts via email, Slack, Microsoft Teams, or custom webhooks when jobs start, complete successfully, fail, or exceed expected duration. The dashboard provides a live view of all running and queued jobs, while detailed execution logs capture every step of each job run, including document counts, processing times, and any errors encountered.
  • What happens to documents that fail processing during a scheduled run?
    Failed documents are automatically moved to a quarantine queue for review rather than blocking the entire batch. You can configure automatic retry attempts for transient errors (like network timeouts) while routing documents with data quality issues to a human review queue. The system maintains a complete audit trail showing why each document failed, and you can reprocess quarantined documents manually or automatically after the underlying issue is resolved.
  • Can I pause or modify a schedule without losing my configuration?
    Absolutely. Pause any scheduled job instantly from the dashboard without deleting it. While paused, the job retains all configuration including source connections, processing rules, and notification settings. Resume it anytime with a single click. You can also modify schedules, update processing parameters, or change notification recipients on active jobs without recreating them from scratch.
  • Does the Scheduler handle overlapping job runs?
    Yes. You control how the Scheduler handles situations where a new job run is triggered while a previous run is still executing. Options include: skip the new run (preventing overlap), queue it to run after the current execution completes, or allow concurrent runs if your workflow supports parallel processing. The default behavior prevents overlap to ensure document processing integrity, but you can adjust this per job based on your requirements.
  • How do I migrate existing scheduled processes to Artificio?
    Our implementation team helps you migrate existing batch processing or scheduled jobs during onboarding. We analyze your current workflows, map them to Artificio's processing capabilities, and configure equivalent scheduled jobs. Most customers run both systems in parallel during a transition period to validate results before fully switching over. The REST API also allows you to programmatically create and manage schedules if you prefer to automate the migration.
