Schedule

The Schedule tab gives automation managers complete visibility into all schedules, past, current, and future, in a calendar interface, without needing to consult technical lists or external tools.

Screenshot of the Schedule tab of the BotCity Operations Center, with the view filter (Monthly) and "Filter by" at the top; the calendar for the selected month with navigation between months and schedule cards on each day; and, in the right sidebar, the Insights cards: Peak scheduling days (Wednesday, 10 events), Schedules by Automation (donut chart with the monthly total and the list of automations), and Runner Allocation.

Calendar

The calendar is the central element of the tab, displaying schedules as cards distributed by day, with view options, navigation limits, and event detail to support monitoring the operation.

Available Views

A selector at the top of the calendar lets you switch between three views:

  • Monthly (default): Overview of the month, with cards grouped by hourly window.
  • Weekly: Detailed view of the week, with time-block layout.
  • Daily: View of a single day, with all events expanded.

The calendar allows navigation:

  • Past: Up to 6 months before the current date.
  • Future: Up to 30 days ahead of the current date.

Days outside this range are disabled in the interface.

Calendar fill

The calendar only fills in days of the current month. Weekdays that belong to the following month are not populated with events.

Schedule Cards

Each event on the calendar is represented by a blue card with the time and the name of the schedule (e.g., 1:00 daily, 4:00 weekly).

Color semantics:

  • Dark blue: Current or future events (scheduled or in progress).
  • Light blue: Past events, regardless of the execution result.

Hovering over or clicking a card shows a tooltip with details over the calendar, including:

  • Date and time: Exact date of the schedule.
  • Name: Name given to the schedule.
  • Automation: Name of the linked automation.
  • Runner: Runner associated with the execution; the field is empty while the task hasn't yet been assigned to a Runner.
  • Status: The task's actual status at that moment.

Actual task status

The task's status is visible only in the tooltip, and does not appear on the card itself.

Status: Waiting, Running, Success, Failed, Partially Completed, Timeout, Canceled

Event Grouping

When there are more schedules than the active view can display at once, events are grouped differently:

  • Monthly: Each day shows the first 2 schedule cards. You can view the next 5 events via the + events link at the bottom of the cell. Monthly view of the calendar in the Schedule tab, with 2 schedule cards visible per day and the more-events link at the bottom of each cell; popup open over Tuesday showing the 5-event indicator, the list of times with a 2-minute frequency between them, and the Go to Day link.
  • Weekly: Each day shows the first 6 schedule cards. You can view the next 10 events via the + events link at the bottom of the column. Weekly view of the calendar in the Schedule tab, with up to 6 schedule cards visible per day and the more-events link at the bottom of each column; popup open over Tuesday showing the 10-event indicator, the list of times with a 2-minute frequency between them, and the Go to Day link.
  • Daily: Events are grouped by hour, shown as one bar per hour with the total events for that period. You can view the upcoming events on the hourly bar. Daily view of the calendar in the Schedule tab, organized by hour, with one bar per hour displaying the total events for that period; popup open over the 7 PM slot showing the 57-event indicator, the day of the week, and the list of specific times with a 2-minute frequency between them.

Clicking the + events link (monthly and weekly views) or an hourly bar (daily view) opens a popup with:

  • A list with the time and name of the schedule.
  • Each schedule with its status.
  • Clicking the automation name may take you to:
    • Scheduled tasks: Schedule information page.
    • Finished tasks: Corresponding task page.
  • Go to Day: Link that takes you directly to the day view for that date, from the monthly and weekly views.

Indicator Panel

The right sidebar displays intelligence cards about the schedules in the visible period:

  • Peak scheduling days: Day of the week with the highest number of events projected from a schedule.
  • Schedules by Automation: Donut chart with the total schedules for the month in the center and, below, a listing of the automations with the most schedules, each with a colored indicator and the number of schedules.
    • Automation name: Link that directs to the Schedule tab filtered by that automation.
  • Runner Allocation: Stacked bar chart with the distribution of automations by Runner, with a listing below.
    • Runner name: Link that directs to the Runner's detail page with the list of associated automations.

Filters

You can combine several filters at the top of the Schedule tab to search according to your needs.

Available filters:

  • View: Switches the calendar display between Monthly (default), Weekly, and Daily.
  • Automation: Select one or more automations, with search available.
  • Repository: Select a single repository, with search available.

Combining filters

The Automation and Repository filters are independent and can be combined. The selection applies to all calendar views.
