# Document

The **Document** view shows a structured summary of your automation, including its overview, execution steps, and input/trigger configuration. Access it by clicking <kbd>Document</kbd> from the automation detail view.

## Inputs and Triggers

Click <kbd>Inputs & Triggers</kbd> in the right panel to configure how the automation receives data and when it runs.

**Automations with inputs** show the **Add Inputs** dialog with two modes:

* <kbd>Add Manually</kbd> -- provide input values each time you run the automation
* <kbd>Add Schedule</kbd> -- run on a recurring schedule (disabled when the automation has required inputs)

{% hint style="warning" %}
Automations that require inputs cannot be scheduled. To use a schedule trigger, the automation must have no required input fields.
{% endhint %}

**Automations without inputs** show the **Triggers** dialog where you can add a schedule trigger.

### Schedule Trigger

A schedule trigger runs the automation automatically on a recurring basis. Set the frequency (every N days, weeks, or months), select which days, choose a start time and timezone. Presets like **Every 5 mins**, **Hourly**, **Daily**, and **Every Weekday** are available for common schedules.

### Webhook and Email Triggers

Webhook and email triggers are configured from the draft editor. See [Drafts](/guides/platform/drafts.md#triggers) for setup instructions.
