Registers a kind=cron trigger. nextFireAt is precomputed from the cron expression at register time; the cron scheduler in the runtime fires due triggers. Malformed cron expressions return 400 trigger-invalid-config without registering.

Idempotency-Key
string
>= 1 characters

Caller-supplied idempotency key, scoped to the caller: the same key from someone else in the tenant is their own request (from 0.1.5). Retries with the same key return the original response byte-identical (per docs/API-ROUTE-CONVENTIONS.md §3.1). A retry sent while the first request still runs is answered 409 idempotency-key-in-flight with Retry-After, on a runtime whose store holds keys (from 0.1.5); retry after it, and you get the first request’s answer. An answer that carries a secret (a new API key or public run token, a session token, a generated signing secret) isn’t kept: a retry gets 409 idempotency-key-replay-withheld, with the first request’s status and when it succeeded (from 0.1.5).

Media typeapplication/json

Name what it runs: flowId with flowVersion, agentId (with an optional agentVersion), or improve (improvement passes). Registering needs write on the project and execute on what it runs (publish on the agent for improve); its runs act as the caller.

object
flowId

Run a flow (with flowVersion).

string
>= 1 characters
flowVersion
string
>= 1 characters
agentId

Run an agent (instead of a flow): at agentVersion, else its live version.

string
>= 1 characters
agentVersion
string
>= 1 characters
improve

Start an improvement pass instead of a run (instead of flowId or agentId). Its config.input is the pass options; registering needs publish on the agent.

object
agentId
required
string
>= 1 characters
scope
required
One of: discriminator: kind

The agent’s default for the whole tenant.

object
kind
required
string
Allowed values: tenant
projectId

The schedule’s project. Absent → the tenant’s default project.

string format: uuid
config
required
object
cronExpression
required
string
>= 1 characters
timezone
string
input

What each run gets. An agent schedule’s runs take the agent payload, { userMessage, parameters? }, so it needs userMessage; a flow’s take the flow’s input. An improve schedule’s is ImproveScheduleInput, kept with its defaults applied.

catchUp

Default latest.

string
Allowed values: latest skip
overlap

Default skip.

string
Allowed values: skip allow
startingDeadlineSeconds

Default 600.

integer
>= 1 <= 86400
label
string

Schedule registered.

Media typeapplication/json

A schedule: what it runs (a flow at a version, or an agent), when (a cron expression in a timezone), as whom (its owner), and what it does after a gap or while a run is still going.

object
scheduleId
required

Domain-friendly alias for triggerId — the trigger id (a UUID). Use interchangeably in admin URLs.

string
triggerId
required
string
flowId

A schedule that runs a flow: the flow, at flowVersion.

string
>= 1 characters
flowVersion
string
>= 1 characters
agentId

A schedule that runs an agent: the agent, at agentVersion, else its version live for the schedule’s project (else the latest), as a run that names none.

string
>= 1 characters
agentVersion
string
>= 1 characters
improve

A schedule that starts improvement passes: on this agent, for this scope, when enough new trusted “no” judgments have come in (input: the threshold, the monthly cap and the pass options).

object
agentId
required
string
>= 1 characters
scope
required
One of: discriminator: kind

The agent’s default for the whole tenant.

object
kind
required
string
Allowed values: tenant
projectId

The schedule’s project: its runs are this project’s.

string format: uuid
owner

Who its runs act as: whoever registered it, until an admin takes it over (POST …/owner). Checked again at every fire.

object
kind
required
string
Allowed values: user service
id
required
string
displayName

The owner’s name at the time of the response: the person’s display name, or the service account’s name. Absent when it can’t be read (no directory, a removed account) and from a runtime before Kindgi 0.1.6: show the id then.

string
cronExpression
required

5- or 6-field cron expression (croner-compatible). 6-field enables second precision.

string
>= 1 characters
timezone

IANA timezone (e.g. UTC, America/New_York). Absent → UTC.

string
input

Static input handed to the run on every fire. Absent → {}.

catchUp

After a gap (the runtime was down, or a fire is later than startingDeadlineSeconds): latest runs once, for the latest missed occurrence, and its fire says how many it missed; skip drops the missed occurrences. Never a run per missed occurrence. A tenant’s suspension isn’t caught up either way: once the tenant is restored, a schedule that’s on fires next at its first occurrence after the restore.

string
Allowed values: latest skip
overlap

When an occurrence comes while the previous run of this schedule is still running: skip records the fire as skipped; allow starts another run.

string
Allowed values: skip allow
startingDeadlineSeconds

How late a fire may start and still count as on time; past it, catchUp applies.

integer
>= 1
label
required
string | null
status
required

Lifecycle status. Only active triggers fire. Tombstoned rows are excluded from every read path.

string
Allowed values: active paused
statusReason

Why the runtime paused it: repeated fires that were refused (the owner lost access) or failed. Skipped fires (an overlap, an erasure in progress) never count.

string
nextFireAt
required

Wall-clock time of the next scheduled fire. null on paused rows if the cron scheduler never re-armed.

string | null format: date-time
upcoming

The next occurrences, when the request asked for them (?upcoming=N).

Array<string>

Malformed request body. Or reference-out-of-scope: what it runs isn’t registered in the schedule’s project, its org or the tenant (details.issues).
