# Scheduling Refreshes

You can schedule your **notebooks** and **dashboards** to refresh automatically, ensuring users always have up-to-date insights without needing to run analyses manually.

### 1. Why Schedule a Notebook?

* Users can manually click **Run All** to refresh data, but:
  * Large analyses may take **a long time to execute**.
  * Running queries **on demand** can be **costly**.
* Scheduling allows automatic refreshes at predefined intervals, ensuring fresh data is available **without delays**.

### 2. Setting Up a Schedule

* You need at least **Analyst** permissions to schedule a notebook.
* In the **top right corner**, click the **Schedule** button.
* A **tray** will open, allowing you to configure:
  * **Time & Day of the Week** (e.g., every Friday at midnight).
  * **Time Zone** to run the schedule in.
* Click **Confirm** to finalize the schedule.

### 3. Notifications and Logs

* Upon scheduling, you'll receive a **confirmation message**.
* You’ll be **notified via email** when:
  * The analysis **successfully runs**.
  * The analysis **fails** (with details on what went wrong).
* To view previous runs, use the **logs button** in the **bottom left** of the schedule tray.

Scheduling ensures your users always have the latest data when relevant without manual execution!
