Use scheduled tasks to run a prompt on a recurring schedule and automatically receive the results. Instead of asking the same question every morning — for example, "Which critical vulnerabilities were published in the last 24 hours?" — you configure it once as a scheduled task, and the agent runs it for you on the cadence you set.

Results are displayed in a new chat with an "unread" indicator.

Scheduled tasks are useful for recurring security hygiene checks, daily environment briefings, and any question where you want a recurring answer without manual effort.

Creating a Scheduled Task

You can create as many scheduled tasks as you want.

To create a scheduled task:

  1. Click Scheduled Tasks in the chat list.

  2. Click Add Task. The Add Task drawer opens.

  3. To activate the task when you save it, enable Activate. Disable this option to save the task without running it.

  4. In the Title field, enter a unique name for the task.

  5. In the Prompt field, enter the AI prompt Axonius runs when the task triggers.

  6. (Optional) To add context or notes, click + Add description and enter a description.

  7. Under Recurrence, select and configure the trigger type:

    • Scheduled — Runs the task at a fixed interval. In the Every field, enter a number and select a time unit (for example, Hours). The time is in the UTC timezone.
    • Event — Runs the task when the selected event occurs.
  8. Under Email Delivery, select Email me each run's report. The report is emailed to the email address associated with your user account after each successful run. If a run failed, no email is sent.

  9. Click Save.

The task appears in the Scheduled Tasks list and runs at the next scheduled time.

How Results Are Delivered

Results are delivered in a new chat with an "unread" indicator.
