Recurrence of a schedule for pipelines

PunChili — Wed, 07 May 2025 07:08:37 GMT

Dear Fabric Community,

I want to run a pipeline every month. It should run between the 1st and the 5th of every month. During these days it should run between 11.59 AM and 3.59 PM, every hour. Any ideas how to manage this?

Thank you.

Hi v-prasare

thank you for pointing out the documentation. That's not enough unfortunately.

I need the possibility (like it was on-prem), to create a subscription which is executed in a time frame, for example every two hours from the 1st until 5th, every month.

I also did not saw anything in the release map.

We face exactly the same problem. The scheduler doesn't allow that kind of flexibility. I have been thinking about a notebook that checks a date and depending on the current date will start the pipeline. On paper that should be doable, but I have not tried it yet

Cheers

Hans

Hi PunChili ,

Currently, Microsoft Fabric Pipelines support basic scheduling options like hourly, daily, and monthly triggers. However, they lack advanced scheduling capabilities found in on-premises tools such as SQL Server Agent or SSRS subscriptions. There is no native way to configure triggers that run only during a specific date range (e.g., 1st to 5th of the month) and within a daily time window (e.g., 11:59 AM to 3:59 PM) at an hourly or 2-hourly frequency.

Unfortunately, there’s no official roadmap item or built-in support in Fabric’s UI for more granular or cron-style scheduling. I’d encourage you to submit your detailed feedback and ideas via Microsoft's official feedback channels, such as the Microsoft Fabric Ideas. Feedback submitted here is often reviewed by the product teams and can lead to meaningful improvement.

Thanks,
