Logic Apps helps you create and run automated recurring tasks and processes on a schedule. By creating a logic app workflow that starts with a built-in Recurrence trigger or Sliding Window trigger, which are Schedule-type triggers, you can run tasks immediately, at a later time, or on a recurring interval. You can call services inside and outside Azure, such as HTTP or HTTPS endpoints, post messages to Azure services such as Azure Storage and Azure Service Bus, or get files uploaded to a file share. With the Recurrence trigger, you can also set up complex schedules and advanced recurrences for running tasks. To learn more about the built-in Schedule triggers and actions, see [Schedule triggers](#schedule-triggers) and [Schedule actions](#schedule-actions).

> You can schedule and run recurring workloads without creating a separate logic app for each scheduled job and running into the [limit on workflows per region and subscription](../logic-apps/logic-apps-limits-and-config.md#definition-limits). Instead, you can use the logic app pattern that's created by the [Azure QuickStart template: Logic Apps job scheduler](https://github.com/Azure/azure-quickstart-templates/tree/master/quickstarts/microsoft.logic/logicapps-jobscheduler/).

## Recurrence for daylight saving time and standard time

Recurring built-in triggers honor the schedule that you set, including any time zone that you specify. If you don't select a time zone, daylight saving time (DST) might affect when triggers run, for example, shifting the start time one hour forward when DST starts and one hour backward when DST ends. When scheduling jobs, Azure Logic Apps puts the message for processing into the queue and specifies when that message becomes available, based on the UTC time when the last job ran and the UTC time when the next job is scheduled to run.

To schedule jobs, Azure Logic Apps puts the message for processing into the queue and specifies when that message becomes available, based on the UTC time when the last job ran and the UTC time when the next job is scheduled to run. If you specify a start time with your recurrence, *make sure that you select a time zone* so that your logic app workflow runs at the specified start time. That way, the UTC time for your logic app also shifts to counter the seasonal time change. Recurring triggers honor the schedule that you set, including any time zone that you specify.
