Get a reminder or a regular summary
Chetty can come back to you on its own: once in twenty minutes, or every working morning with the same overview. You do not need any page for it; ask in the conversation.
One reminder, or the same task again and again
| What you want | Ask like this | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| One reminder | "remind me in 20 minutes to call Novák" | Chetty returns to the conversation once and the reminder removes itself. |
| One reminder at a time | "remind me at 18:30 to lock the office" | The same, at a set time. Seconds work too, from five up. |
| A repeated task | "every working day at 8:00, send me what came in overnight" | Chetty does it again on the same schedule until you pause or delete it. |
A repeated task can also be a weekly summary or a check of one Project every morning. Say the time and the days in your own words; Chetty turns them into a schedule. The page Automation shows what was created and lets you change it: Manage tasks that run on their own.
Where the result arrives
A reminder created in a conversation comes back to that conversation. A repeated task started in the web chat or in a shared room works in its own conversation, named after the task, so the result does not interrupt your discussion.
Anything a task does, it does with your permissions, so it can read only what you can read. A task belongs to the person who created it; colleagues do not see it.
Calendar and history
The Automation page has a Calendar of the coming runs and a History of the ones that already happened, with their result. Runs are kept for seven days, daily totals for ninety.
Limits worth knowing
- One account can keep up to 20 tasks of its own.
- A repeated task usually cannot run more often than every 15 minutes, and a plain weekday-and-time schedule is enough for almost everything.
- A task set up for the whole organization is the administrator's job; you can ask for one.
- If a task is paused, or the Project it belongs to is deleted, it stops running.
When a result arrives late
- A temporary hiccup is retried before Chetty gives up, so a single failure usually does not lose the run.
- If a result cannot be delivered, Chetty tries again without repeating the work. Up to 50 results may wait.
- When a run has nothing to report, no message arrives. That is not a failure.
- A failed run alerts the owner of the task, and the reason is in the history.
