Timer

Run a saved command graph at a recurring interval.

Starter · 1 SCH

Timer runs a saved visual command in a channel you choose. Use it to refresh a status panel, check an API, or post a recurring update.

Set up

  1. Create and save your visual command. Run it manually to check the result.
  2. Install Timer on the same bot.
  3. Enter the Command name without /, choose Run in channel, and set Interval (minutes).
  4. Save and deploy the bot.

The first run happens after one interval. Starter supports intervals of 30 minutes or longer; Pro supports 5 minutes or longer. A shorter setting uses your plan's minimum. Timer uses one schedule slot while enabled, shared across your account's schedule allowance.

The graph runs in the selected channel's server. It can use that server's settings and saved data. {channel.id} is the selected channel, and {user.id} is the bot itself. Command options are empty, so use settings or saved data for inputs. Set the command's access permissions to control who can run it manually.

Keep the bot running for updates. Runs missed while it is stopped are not replayed. Restarting the bot does not bypass the minimum update interval. A run still in progress finishes before another begins.

See Build a status panel for a complete example.
