Scheduled Tasks
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:
-
Click Scheduled Tasks in the chat list.
-
Click Add Task. The Add Task drawer opens.
-
To activate the task when you save it, enable Activate. Disable this option to save the task without running it.
-
In the Title field, enter a unique name for the task.
-
In the Prompt field, enter the AI prompt Axonius runs when the task triggers.
-
(Optional) To add context or notes, click + Add description and enter a description.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
