Scheduled tasks can be edited to change parameters such as the starting user, date, time, and recurrence of the scheduled workflow.

Prerequisites

Create a scheduled workflow task.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the vRealize Orchestrator Client.
  2. Select your scheduled task from Activity > Scheduled.
  3. Click Edit on the workflow panel.
  4. Edit the scheduled task parameters.
    Note: Input parameters set when creating the scheduled task are read-only and cannot be edited. To change these parameters, create a new scheduled task for this workflow.
    Parameter Description
    Starting user Change the authentication of the scheduled task. Click Use Current User to set the scheduled task authentication to the current user.

The new user authentication is set after changes to the scheduled task are saved.
