Hello,

Is it possible to schedule a start of request?

For example:

I would like to schedule a workflow that starts every 1st day of month.

Hi,

Yes this is possible by using [WorkflowGen’s API](https://docs.workflowgen.com/v711/api/html/9b0acccb-cdc1-35b3-2f6c-5c9aadbadaf1.htm).

For example, you can create a service that starts a request each 1st day of the month by using the following method:
