Scheduling
The following scheduling options can be applied to your configured task.
- Scheduling Option
- Description
Run Now- As soon as the task is configured, run it immediately.
Run Once- Run the task at the scheduled time and then do not run it again.
Run Daily- Run the task at the scheduled time each day. See Daily extractions.
Run Hourly- Run the task every hour of every day.
Note: The sessions to include in an extraction are defined by the
session time for each session. The timestamp of a session is the timestamp
of the last hit in a session. For example, if you configure an extract
for sessions between 1:00 and 2:00, a session that begins at 1:50
and contains a final hit that is recorded at 2:10 is not included.
Depending on the type of extraction, Unica Discover Data Export waits the following time periods:
- For repeated tasks such as Daily or Hourly task, Unica Discover Data Export verifies
that the session indexes were updated at least 1 hour after the end
of the configured extract time.
- If an hourly job is unable to complete in the allotted number of tries, it is skipped and is not reattempted. The next hour, the job is run to collect that hour's data.
- For ad hoc tasks, Unica Discover Data Export does not attempt an extraction until 30 minutes past the end of the extract time.
- Run Now tasks do not check the indexes.
