Recurring scheduled automation not being picked up in Jobs

Hello, I have tried scheduling a one time job, which worked perfectly as intended, but now I need to set this automation to run in recurrence of every 4 hours, for the entire day. The entries in the scheduler are as follows.

Name - Name of Schedule Agent Name - My current agent (Connected) Automations - Selected automation to run in recurrence (same automation used to test the One time schedule) Starting Type - Recurrence Select Time Zone - Central US&CAN Start Date - 1/16/2023, 12:45PM (set 5 min ahead) Expiry Date - 1/17/2023, 10:55AM Cron Expression - Hourly, Every 4 hour(s) on minute 0

Schedule Parameters were not added in either instance.

When configured this way the Jobs tab never picks up the job to execute the automation. Is there something I am configuring incorrectly?

Hi umaema.a,

Please note that the scheduled is not triggered at the start time set in the schedule, but rather the next time the condition becomes true. ​ For example, if you create a job at 8 am and set it to every 2 hours, the first job will be created at 10 am.
