Each scheduled task has a card showing what Ted did each time it ran. From it, run the task now, change it, pause it or delete it. Ted can do this for you: ask him to change, pause, resume or delete a task. Everyone in your foundable can open a task’s card. The owner or an admin can edit, run, pause and delete tasks. Only the owner can resume a paused task, or see Ted’s steps in a run.

​
Emails about your tasks

Foundable emails the owner when a task drafts something to approve, didn’t run or finish, or has an update from Ted. Each email’s button opens what needs you. If a run didn’t happen, the email says why, and when the next try is. If you ran out of credits, its button is Add credits. There’s no email when you press Run Now or pause a task yourself. To stop these emails, turn off Scheduled tasks in Notifications. Notification settings, at the bottom of each email, opens it. Where your email app shows Unsubscribe, pressing it turns them off too.

If something goes wrong

For a run that didn’t happen at its time, see why a task didn’t run.
Run Now needs credits. When you have more, press it again. See Get more credits when you run out.
Someone paused the task while this run waited to start, so Ted skipped it. To start the task again, the owner presses Resume Task.
