Fortigate Automation Stitch trigger schedule not working

[jomof]

Hello Expert,

I configured a Stitch to backup our Fortigates firewall to an solarwinds tftp server. 

But I notice once the backups are completed for a week it is not running automatically for the next week.

I did some troubleshooting and found that last trigger date and next scheduled trigger is same.

Unsure if this is preventing the backup from running at the next appointed time.

I humbly request some help .

Please results before for guidance .

Hi @jomof ,

Configurations look good.  

Is it possible for you to provide all related automation stitch configurations so I can test it locally?

Hi @jomof ,

I used your configurations, only changed the TFTP server and scheduled time, got the following:

stitch: Weekly_backups_to_TFTP (scheduled)

local hit: 1 relayed to: 1 relayed from: 0
last trigger:Sun Feb 16 09:30:13 2025
last relay:
next scheduled trigger:Sun Feb 23 09:30:00 2025
actions:
Upload Backup config to Tftp Server:
done: 1 relayed to: 1 relayed from: 0
last trigger:Sun Feb 16 09:30:13 2025
last relay:

I would recommend you delete and recreate the stitch for a try.
