Schedules with the CLI

Create, read, enable, disable and delete runner schedules from the terminal.

Schedules pause and resume a runner on a weekly timetable. They need a Pro or Enterprise plan; Schedules in the manual explains how they work. Reading needs the schedules:read scope, which the CLI’s login token has; changes need schedules:write:

manage-runners auth login --profile default --scope schedules:write

Check whether your organization’s plan includes schedules:

manage-runners subscription show

Create or replace a schedule

manage-runners schedule set --runner-id 812999368881481087 \
  --zone-id Europe/Berlin \
  --start 07:00 --stop 19:00 \
  --day Mon --day Tue --day Wed --day Thu --day Fri \
  --enabled
Flag Description
--runner-id The runner the schedule belongs to
--zone-id IANA time zone, for example Europe/Berlin or America/New_York
--start Start time, HH:MM
--stop Stop time, HH:MM, later than --start
--duration-minutes Instead of --stop: window length, 1 to 1440 minutes
--day Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat or Sun; repeat for each day, at least one
--enabled Enable the schedule. Pass --enabled=false to save it disabled.

Give exactly one of --stop and --duration-minutes. --enabled must always be given explicitly. schedule set replaces any existing schedule of the runner.

Read, enable and disable

manage-runners schedule get --runner-id 812999368881481087
manage-runners schedule disable --runner-id 812999368881481087
manage-runners schedule enable --runner-id 812999368881481087

A disabled schedule keeps its settings and does nothing until you enable it again.

Delete

manage-runners schedule delete --runner-id 812999368881481087 --confirm 812999368881481087 --yes

Deleting is permanent. Interactively, the CLI asks you to confirm and to type the runner ID. Deleting a runner deletes its schedule as well.

Errors

Without a Pro or Enterprise plan, schedule commands fail with exit code 4. A runner without a schedule makes schedule get fail with exit code 5. Invalid times, days or zones fail with exit code 2 before anything is sent, or with exit code 7 if the API rejects them.
