Guard against overlapping scheduled runs

A guard scenario sets a flag in Redis while it works: until the previous run finishes, a new one won't start.

  • Keeps runs from overlapping
  • Sets a "busy" flag in Redis
  • Clears the flag when done
  • For heavy scheduled scenarios

How it works

Automating Redis takes no code: a ready-made scenario does the routine for you.

  1. Starts when: Schedule Trigger
  2. Then: Get Flag
  3. Check: Flag does not exists
  4. Then: Set Flag
  5. Then: Execute Workflow
  6. Then: Remove Flag

You can launch this integration in Scriptera: describe the task in plain words — the scenario is built, launched and monitored for you.
