Introduction to Recurring Workflows in Bubble
This Bubble tutorial video is a follow up to our recent video about how to schedule recurring workflows in 2023. This is all about how Bubble has expanded upon the original set of features for recurring workflows. You no longer have to use a work around if you want to schedule from daily into larger increments.
Creating a Recurring Workflow
So, what we have so far is showing you how to create a back end workflow that is a recurring workflow and scheduling this event daily email to users. But how do you cancel it? And it's really quick and easy to do so.
Adding a Cancel Button
I've added in a button called cancel and I'm going to add in a workflow. And so I now go to set or cancel a recurring event. I choose the event that I had scheduled before and then the way that it's identified, the piece of data that the recurring event latches onto, I enter this current user and you can see that here.
Identifying the Event to Cancel
So in order for Bubble to be able to find the right event to cancel, we need to link it back to current user. And then the frequency I just set to none.
Previewing the Workflow
And then if I preview that and just to show you what's going on in logs scheduler, you can see that I have the workflow scheduled for roughly 24 hours time. That is tomorrow for me when I'm recording this video.
Canceling the Recurring Workflow
But then when I click this button and then press double, you can see that the recurring workflow has been canceled.
Conclusion
So there you have it, that is how to cancel a recurring workflow or recurring event in Bubble.
