Every hour (in flow)

MennoMenno Member
Is there an easy way to trigger a flow every  "1" hour ( with the option to change 1 to something you like) for example read the news or tell the temperature
I think this should be an option in date & time

    You understand what I mean must say read news was not a good example.
    Stocks and wheather underground don't have a then option. So it would be nice to have the Every .... option also available as AND option

    ----- Edit ------

    Maybe I should ask the builders of the apps to add an then option 
  • Every Hour is a trigger, not a condition.
    So: Every Hour belongs in the first column: When
    You can't say, "every Hour"  is True or False, 
    Maybe you want a "The minutes == 00", that is a condition that is one minutes true every hour....
    (but it isn't available now out of the box, you have to create it )

    Probably you can work around it by using an other trigger and some condition.

    Although your question "Is there an easy way to trigger a flow every  "1" hour ..." was very clear and the answer from Bas perfectly correct.....
    What do you want to achieve?

    If = trigger
    And = condition (s)
    Then = action

    Besides posting certain weather data to your personal Weather Underground account, I currently can't think of a action my app can have?
