I always get confused with expressing times on bubble.
Basically i am trying to constrain something to happen: only when current time is 6pm (for example).
how do i express this?
Are either of these any close?

Your 2nd one would work. Your workflow would happen at any time between 6:00 and 6:59PM
And will it only happen once?
And how would i tell to happen at 6 instead of a time range?
Well I’m not sure what workflow this is on, if this is a “When condition is true” workflow and you have that condition, then it would run once when it is at least 6PM, but if they refresh it could run again if it’s 6:15 for example
If you want it only at exactly 6 then do Current date/time:extract hour is 18 and Current date/time:extract minutes is 0
It’s for a recurring backend workflow push notification
Well it would only run if it happened to be scheduled at exactly 6PM in that case
It won’t schedule to run at 6PM
If you’re talking about a Recurring event workflow
Oh that’s right! my bad.
So is this where i need a tigger button on my admin page to schedule the recurring event and use this constraint ?
How do i tigger that backend workflow to run everyday at 6pm?
Here is where i am currently lost on the admin page button workflow
Okay that makes more sense now
Just set it to Current date/time:rounded down to date:change hours to 18
If you press it after 6PM it can’t schedule it in the past so it will reschedule for the next day
Ok done. So, if i pressed this admin button now, it will trigger the BE WF to run tomorrow at 6pm? … and it will keep triggering daily at 6pm?
Yes​​
Lets goooo!
thanks dude
