This skill manages scheduled command executions in SAP Automation Pilot - creating, listing, updating, and deleting scheduled executions with flexible scheduling options and time zone support.

Prerequisites

1. Set the following required environment variables:

export AUTOPI_HOSTNAME="emea.autopilot.cloud.sap"
export AUTOPI_USERNAME="your-username"
export AUTOPI_PASSWORD="your-password"
export AUTOPI_DEFAULT_CATALOG="mycommands-<<<TENANT_ID>>>"

For the full list of supported hostnames (emea, aus, apac, amer, ksa), see ../automation-pilot-content-management-via-api/SKILL.md → Prerequisites.

2. Ensure curl is available in your environment.

Creating Scheduled Executions

curl -s -X POST \
  -u "$AUTOPI_USERNAME:$AUTOPI_PASSWORD" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "commandId": "my-catalog:MyCommand:1",
    "schedule": {
      "timeZone": "Europe/Berlin",
      "daily": {
        "hours": [9],
        "minutes": [0]
      }
    },
    "enabled": true,
    "inputValues": {
      "param1": "value1"
    },
    "description": "Daily morning check"
  }' \
  "https://$AUTOPI_HOSTNAME/api/v1/scheduled-executions"

All inputValues entries must be strings on the wire, regardless of the declared parameter type — see ../automation-pilot-content-management-via-api/SKILL.md → "Values Are Always Strings on the Wire".

Managing Scheduled Executions

List All Schedules

curl -s -u "$AUTOPI_USERNAME:$AUTOPI_PASSWORD" \
  "https://$AUTOPI_HOSTNAME/api/v1/scheduled-executions"

  "https://$AUTOPI_HOSTNAME/api/v1/scheduled-executions/$SCHEDULE_ID"

Enable/Disable Schedule

# PUT the full schedule body with "enabled" set to true or false
curl -s -X PUT \
  -u "$AUTOPI_USERNAME:$AUTOPI_PASSWORD" \

Error Handling

HTTP Status Codes

Code	Description
200	Success (GET, PUT)
201	Created (POST)
204	No Content (DELETE)
400	Bad Request - invalid schedule or input
401	Unauthorized - invalid credentials
403	Forbidden - insufficient permissions
404	Not Found - schedule doesn't exist
409	Conflict - invalid state
429	Rate Limited

Permissions Required

Operation	Permission
List/Get schedules	Read
Create/Update/Delete	Execute

Common Errors

Command Not Found (409)

Error: Command "catalog:Command:1" not found

Verify the command ID exists and you have access to it.

Invalid Schedule (400)

Error: Invalid schedule configuration

Ensure only one schedule type is set (hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly).

Schedule Not Firing

Cause: Schedule is disabled or the time zone is misconfigured. Solution: GET the schedule and verify "enabled": true. Confirm the timeZone matches the intended region — a schedule set for Europe/Berlin at 09:00 fires at a different UTC time than one set for Etc/UTC.

Examples

Example 1: Create a daily health check schedule

User: "Schedule my health check command to run every day at 9 AM Berlin time"

1. POST to /api/v1/scheduled-executions with commandId, enabled: true, and "daily": {"hours": [9], "minutes": [0]}
2. Set "timeZone": "Europe/Berlin"
3. Capture the schedule ID from the response
4. Confirm with a GET that the schedule is enabled and the time is correct

Example 2: Update a schedule's timing

User: "Change my schedule to run at 10 AM instead of 9 AM"

1. GET /api/v1/scheduled-executions/$SCHEDULE_ID to fetch the current body
2. Modify the hours value in the response body to [10]
3. PUT the full updated body back
4. Confirm the response shows the new time

Example 3: Create an every-15-minutes monitoring schedule

User: "Run my monitoring command every 15 minutes"

1. POST to /api/v1/scheduled-executions with "hourly": {"minutes": [0, 15, 30, 45]}
2. Set "timeZone": "Etc/UTC"
3. Verify the schedule is created and enabled
