Can we run a flow twice when the trigger is scheduled as weekly?

[Irene M]

Hi guys!

Is it possible to run a flow twice when it's scheduled as weekly?

We want the flow to run Weekly, every Monday. The first run is at 5AM and the next run is at 12noon. Is that possible?

Hello @Irene M 

There is no OOB flow configuration that'll make the flow trigger twice 

The best option would be create an additional scheduled job that triggers at 5am, and call the flow from that Job

The best method for this would be to create a new Trigger in Flow Designer:

From there you'll be able to select the type of trigger you want, being a scheduled trigger you'll choose "Recurrence":

Continue Building your trigger, from here you'll choose business calendar and select the business calendar that you want to tailor it after.  You'll need to create the business calendar with the availability you want, but I assume you've already setup business calendar already.
