Scheduling workflow

Community Support

Hi Temporal team,

I have a requirement to create a workflow, but not start executing it until some later configured time. Is there a way to schedule a workflow to run it later? Or would creating a workflow with a timer in the beginning suffice?

Thanks,
Richard

Yes think this is fine to do.

Another thing to consider would be use of schedules, where you can define a schedule to run once by setting LimitedActions to true and RemainingActions to 1 (schedule then would be idle until updates are provided).
