Scheduled scans

Run scans automatically so new cookies and trackers don't slip in unnoticed.

Why schedule scans​

Most websites change all the time: a new marketing tag, a new vendor, a new feature. Scheduled scans keep your cookie list current without anyone having to remember to do it.

A weekly or monthly scan is enough for most teams.

Set up a schedule​

Open your project and go to Cookies β†’ Scanner.

In the top right, click Schedule Scan.

The full flow: click Schedule Scan, pick the frequency, day, time, and timezone, then save the schedule.

Pick the options that suit you:

Frequency. Choose Weekly or Monthly.

Day. For weekly scans, pick a day of the week. For monthly scans, pick a day between 1 and 28.

Time. Pick the hour and minute the scan should start.

Timezone. Choose the timezone the time is in.

Click Save Schedule. The schedule is now active.

Update or pause a schedule​

Click Schedule Scan again. The dialog opens with your current settings and shows when the next scan is scheduled.

To change the schedule, edit the fields and click Update Schedule.

To pause it without deleting it, click Disable in the dialog. You can click Enable to turn it back on any time.

To remove it, click Delete Schedule.

Where the results show up​

Scheduled scans appear in the same Scanner list as manual ones. The Created By column shows the system did it instead of a teammate.

Open any scan to see what changed since the last one.

Permissions​

Only Owners and Admins can see and manage the schedule. Users don't see the Schedule Scan button.
