So, I have a spreadsheet (gsheet) with tons of rows (let’s say 1000). My scenario copies a cell, goes to chatgpt and copies back the answer to gsheet.
That works, but just for one row. I understand I can copy all my 20 steps 1000 times but that is useless.
So I want to schedule a job that starts today at 2pm (example) and i want it to run the scenario every 5 minutes…but when you do the x minute scheduling…there is no start time option.
It needs to start on a different computer so it appears I have to do it with the scheduling function, but…when i want to start the job manually to run every 5 minutes it only runs on the current agent…
when i try to start the job on the mac that has the right agent and all windows set up…I can’t see the jobs part of the u-xer screen since it has to be small otherwise i cant have the other windows open, so how can i start it? would be really helpful if the jobs could be visible in a better way
and when i click start, how long does it take for the first scenario to start? is there some time to start the job and then minimalise u-xer so everything else is visible?
related question: I’d love to see the status of a running job (in general always), but it takes up a lot of the screen space, which doesnt work when you need to have all windows of all apps you are using open and visible at the same time…
what am i missing here?
Added:
So I found a repeat scenario option, but it doesnt work. I scheduled it to run (scenario active). And it runs once, not 10 times, and then it says it is completed succesfully
Best solution for that is to use Jobs or Repeat option.
Jobs does have a scheduling for 5 minute there is no option to “start” and “end” it on specific times. It will just run each 5 minutes.
Using repeat option, scenario will repeat without stopping “N” number of times. As an example Scenario should be:
RunScenario “My Scenario NAme” -Repeat 1000 (I will check the problem in another topic)
If you are running a Job on a schedule, you need to choose the agent from the dropdown on the Job edit page. If you run the job just by clicking the play icon on the job, it will run on the agent you choose on the top of the page near your user name.
Uxer is even available on mobile browsers. If your screen is small, hide left sidebar and open right sidebar which is the job sidebar. I shared below a screenshot to hide the left side bar. There is right sidebar same as this one. However, when you start a job, you have time to minimize the Uxer window. But you need to test it your self and see the delay. I usually start my first step clicking the tab name on the browser. So It highlights the correct browser.
When you are working on a single computer, it is not very possible to see the progress. You can use your phone for that purpose. WE use virtual machines to run automation in general.
