Default Behavior
- ShareGate Desktop needs to remain open in the system tray for scheduled Promote action to run automatically.
- If your cookies expired, there will be a pop up to re-enter your credentials before the Promote action can run as scheduled.
- If one or more occurrences were missed due to the app being closed, when ShareGate Desktop restarts, you will see a pop-up asking if you want to run the scheduled Promote action. It will not run until you select your preference.
- A scheduled promote action runs as long as ShareGate Desktop is open in the system tray, and will still run if your computer is locked, but not if you are logged off or in sleep mode.
- When using a virtual machine (VM), you need to have a persistent desktop (image that persists between reboots) to ensure the scheduled Promote action is saved.
- If you are using a remote server session, the scheduled Promote action will run as long as the server is not asleep.
- You cannot set the results of a scheduled Promote action to automatically export or be sent out as an email. This can be done manually once the task is finished running.
