Feature Request: Schedule Journeys 1X/Month — The Iterable Community

Just curious if anyone has a work around for the above question? We have a journey that we ideally want to be monthly evergreen.

Hi Zachary,

You can set up a dynamic list of all your existing and new customers as an entry source of the journey + schedule mode for the journey with a 30-day repeat.


Thanks Rustam AbdullaevRussell Transcend. Every 30 days doesn't work for monthly because not every month has 30 days, some have more, some have less. So eventually the date will gradually change over time. We need a way to release it on the exact same day every month, like on the 28th of every month, or the 1st of every month. There is no way to do that in Iterable's current configuration.


Rustam Abdullaev just wanted to check back in on this. Lauren Cory is correct as to why this wouldn't be a lasting solution.


@Zachary.Kemp@CBN.ORG there is a way to do this but it’s more of hack than anything. You’d have to insert so send skip handlebar logic. 

Essentially you would trigger the email to send every day in the journey but the handlebar logic inside the email would run a send skip (preventing the email send) if the handlebar logic condition isn’t met. And you can add a 27 day wait tile to avoid unnecessary runs between sends.

The handlebar logic would check that the day of the month is exact match for the day you choose, ie. 28th, and you’re done.

Hope this helps!
