Lag with triggers

Open PeteJITG opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Hello,

I would like to create a scheduled workflow but when I set a specific future date/time for the trigger (eg 03:00:00pm) the workflow gets executed with a slight delay/lag - eg at 03:00:45pm or 03:00:32pm. It's different every time, but each time it's delayed by about 30 to 45 seconds. My task is EXTREMELY time sensitive and needs to execute on the dot at the exact timestamp, so I was hoping there was a way to fix this slight lag. Am I missing something? Anything I can do? Thank you!

  • OS: Windows
  • Browser: Chrome

Did you use the "On specific date" trigger? And can you right-click at the Automa dashboard, select the "Inspect" menu, at the "console" tab paste this code chrome.alarms.getAll(console.log); and screenshot it like the below image.

Hi @Kholid060,

Thanks for your reply! Yes, I tried both "on a specific date" and "on a specific day" but same outcome. See screenshot attached.
