Can the AI assistant do a task automatically on a schedule, such as creating a social media post every day?

Yes, with a scheduled task (also called a scheduled agent) in the AI assistant. The AI wakes up at the time you set, daily, weekly or monthly, and does what your instructions say, for example creating social media content or writing and publishing a blog post.

  1. Create a scheduled task in the AI assistant.
  2. Give it its instructions. For a blog: run every day at a set time, find a trending topic on Google (or follow whatever criteria you give), write a blog post or page about it, and publish it on a website you name. For social media, tell it to use the social media skill, for example "Use the social media skill to create me a new post every day and save it as a draft."
  3. Set the schedule, for example every day.

A scheduled task is the best approach for recurring content like this. You can leave the scheduled task on all tools or lock it down to specific tools. Each run uses AI assistant credits.

Instead of a recurring schedule, you can also have the AI create a month of social content up front and approve it all at once. You can also tell the AI to use (launch) the social media skill to go through the full posting process end to end.
