Schedule a Data Pipeline two different days in a month

[amaaiia]

I'm trying to schedule a Data Pipeline every day 1 and 16 in each month. Is it possible with Fabric interface with schedule configuration?

I don't want to schedule with crontab in Power Shell.

One solution could be Invoking pipeline with another Data Pipeline and configure two different schedules with two different Data Pieplines...

Hi @amaaiia 

Another approach is to schedule your pipeline to run daily but use conditional logic within the pipeline:

1. Schedule your pipeline to run daily.
2. Add a "Set Variable" activity to get the current day of the month.
3. Use an "If Condition" activity to check if the day is 1 or 16.
4. Only execute the main pipeline logic if the condition is true.
   

Please let me know if you need more details.
