It would be very useful if the Scheduled trigger had a "Run Now" option (does it? If so, I don't see it). This would allow me to test the automation.

Same for Manual Triggers that don't depend on a specific issue.

Hi @C_ Derek Fields 

The scheduled trigger does have a "Run rule" under the ... menu at the top-right, after the rule is published in the editor.  There isn't a "run now" option in the rule list.  Is that what you meant?

Manually triggered rules are always from the context of an issue, even if they do not use it.  And so "run now" would not work without supplying an issue.  You could change the trigger to Scheduled to allow run-now from the editor.

 

I did a quick check and did not see a "Run Now" suggestion for scheduled rules in the list, so perhaps consider adding that one.

 

Kind regards,
Bill
