I’ve got two different api workflows that do different things. 1. APIFY workflow that gets some google maps data and the other one an exchange rate.
The apify backend flow+reccuring event and scheduling works well and it’s live. Scheduled to run weekly via a reccuring event and chose “workflow thing” as Current user.
However, when I setup another reccuring DAILy event for the exchange rates APIs, I’m being asked to choose again a workflow thing. I choose workflow thing as current user again, and I run it, but I get this error in the logs.”More than one scheduled recurring event per thing. Aborted.”
I noticed this message, but I find it hard to believe. I doubt I can only have one reccuring flow for the entire backend.
Hey!
Each thing can only have one recurring event attached to it at a time. Since you selected “Current User” as the workflow thing for both schedules, Bubble sees that as two recurring events on the same thing and blocks the second one.
To fix it, you simply need to use two different things for the two recurring schedules. For example:
Create a separate data type (e.g., “ExchangeRate Scheduler”) and use that as the workflow thing.
Or create a dedicated scheduler thing for each recurring workflow.
This way, both recurring events can run independently without conflict.
Let me know if you’d like me to set this up or adjust it for you.
Thanks a lot but I don’t have another option than current user. Below is a screesnhot of what I added after the button click which is supposed to schedule. And that Step 1 below triggers 2 more other flows which udpate my table. The backend flows work, I tested them, but the scheduling doesn’t….
