Schedule the trigger to start your flow on a specific date and time or repeatedly at scheduled intervals. Reuse the trigger in flows that need to run on the same schedule.\n\n## Before you begin\n\nRole required: trigger\\_designer, flow\\_designer, or admin.\n\n## About this task\n\nChoose from a variety of scheduling options to create a scheduled trigger that starts your flow at the required time and interval. You can schedule a trigger in any time zone, with or without an end date for the schedule.\n\nIf you want to create a scheduled trigger based on a business calendar, see [Create a scheduled trigger using business calendar](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/build-workflows/workflow-studio/create-trigger-business-calendar.md).\n\n## Procedure\n\n1.  Navigate to **All** &gt; **Process Automation** &gt; **Workflow Studio**.\n\n2.  From the Workflow Studio home page, select **New** &gt; **Trigger**.\n\n    The New Trigger page appears.\\[Omitted image \"scheduled-trigger-properties.png\"\\] Alt text: Screen to enter the details of your trigger.\n\n3.
