Using "Scheduled Actions"

You will learn what "Scheduled Actions" are, how to enable this feature, and how to use them.

Scheduled actions are times in the future where an article automatically gets modified. They are shown and can be managed in the sidebar of the editor, in the "Upcoming actions" section. Currently, we support scheduled publishing and scheduled unpublishing as actions. As seen in the screenshot below, multiple actions can be defined for an article, even multiple actions of the same type. This way, complex visibility changes of the content can be planned and configured in advance.



If the publishing date of the article is set to a date in the future, there will always also be a scheduled publish-event in the list of upcoming events corresponding to it. But if the article is set to publish "immediately" or is set to a date in the past, no upcoming publish event is shown in the list.



Scheduled actions are an opt-in-feature, meaning existing projects will not have this by default, but it needs to be activated by an administrator on the hub-settings-page.

Articles that have a configured unpublish date will be migrated to scheduled actions, so that they have an unpublish-action on the same time as configured beforehand.
