Gluesync Module · Chronos # Schedules and events Time-based schedules and event-driven triggers in one orchestration engine. Run snapshots, chain workflows, and react to webhooks or Core Hub state changes without polling. [Explore Schedules and events](#features) [Talk to our team](/contacts/?topic=gluesync-platform)  Why Schedules and events ## Orchestrate sync when time — or events — demand it 01 / Manual ops ### Hand-triggered pipelines Teams start snapshots, pause entities, and resume CDC by hand or with brittle scripts — easy to miss a window and hard to audit. 02 / Polling tax ### Fixed schedules only Relying solely on cron introduces latency and wasted checks. Modern architectures need pipelines that react when business or platform events fire. 03 / The platform outcome ### One Chronos engine Schedules and events combine friendly cron, chained workflows, webhooks, and Core Hub lifecycle listeners under JWT-backed RBAC. Capabilities ## From cron jobs to enterprise orchestration Chronos started as Gluesync’s scheduler and now runs complex event sequences — managed from the Control Plane Scheduler UI. Time-based automation ### Scheduled actions #### Cron, weekly patterns, and on-demand runs Create and manage jobs from the Scheduler UI or REST APIs. Control pipelines, start and stop entities, run snapshots, and schedule maintenance windows without leaving Gluesync. - User-friendly schedule forms plus full cron expression support - Weekly and custom CRON syntax with timezone configuration - Pipeline, entity, and snapshot task types - Job history, enable/disable, and on-demand execution [View Chronos docs ↗](https://docs.molo17.com/gluesync/latest/gs-modules/chronos.html) Schedules and events  ### Event-driven data flow orchestration Automate data workflows with scheduled jobs, platform-native triggers, and webhook integrations — reducing manual intervention across your pipelines.  Workflow orchestration ### Chained events #### Synchronous and asynchronous multi-step flows Move beyond single cron ticks. Chain operational steps so a snapshot can complete before CDC starts, or run parallel branches when the workflow allows. - Synchronous and asynchronous event chaining - Snapshot-to-CDC resume for continuous capture handoff - Visual chained-events editor in the Scheduler UI - Faster startup via batch loading and pre-calculated schedules [View Chronos Events docs ↗](https://docs.molo17.com/gluesync/latest/gs-modules/chronos-events.html) ### Pipeline automation without custom glue code Orchestrate recurring sync and reactive workflows from one module — the same Control Plane where you already manage agents and pipelines. Event-driven triggers ### Webhooks and platform events #### React to external systems and Core Hub state changes External orchestrators and native Gluesync lifecycle events can start Chronos flows on demand — eliminating poll-based overhead. - Secure incoming webhooks with dedicated secret tokens - Configurable timeouts so hanging callouts never block queues - Pipeline startup, pause, and error state listeners in Core Hub - Persistent webhook registrations with retry and filter logic [View Webhooks docs ↗](https://docs.molo17.com/gluesync/latest/gs-modules/chronos-events.html) Schedules and events  Enterprise control ### Security and access #### JWT introspection and route-level RBAC Every Chronos API and webhook endpoint is protected against unauthorized invocation and scoped to Gluesync roles. - JWT authentication validated against Core Hub - Route-level RBAC - Full SSL/HTTPS with configurable TLS verification - Deployed as a module alongside existing Gluesync infrastructure [View Security docs ↗](https://docs.molo17.com/gluesync/latest/gs-modules/chronos.html) Explore the platform ## Continue exploring Gluesync Schedules and events power Integration automations.
