Hi there @Chandrashekar  

 

Create two separate flows: one with a Scheduled trigger set to run every hour, and another set to run every 30 minutes. For both triggers, configure the time window to 8:00 AM – 10:00 PM (EST) and restrict the days to Monday through Friday. Make sure the trigger’s time zone is explicitly set to EST, not the instance default. This way, the platform automatically enforces both the frequency and the business-hours constraint without any scripting.

☑️ If this helped, please mark it as Helpful or Accept Solution so others can find the answer too.

Hi @Its_Azar,

 

can you show how to restrict days from Monday through Friday in flow trigger as you advised?

 

I tried that and it only applies for:

  • Repeat each N days / hours / minutes / seconds,
    • how to set this every 60 min only Mon-Fri???
  • Daily at given time
    • every day at defined time,
    • how to do it hourly or exclude weekends for example?
  • Weekly at given day and time

I guess the condition must be somehow scripted, not possible to do it by the condition builder easily...

This is why I would suggested to consider scheduled job instead, it might be easier to achieve these triggers.

Could you @Its_Azar possibly explain how to try your solution? And where do we can set flow's trigger time zone?
