Prequel automatically orchestrates transfers on a schedule. Every account runs at a default frequency, and Prequel enqueues a transfer for each enabled destination at that cadence with no manual intervention.

​
Default orchestration

Every Prequel account runs at a default frequency, configurable at the account level. Unless otherwise specified, this default value is daily (i.e., every 24 hours).
Orchestration time of day is globalThe time of day at which scheduled transfers run is global to your account. For example, daily transfers run at midnight UTC and 12h transfers run at midnight and noon UTC. Contact the Prequel team if you would like to update this global orchestration time.

​
Per-destination frequency

You can override the default frequency for an individual destination, either in the Prequel Admin UI or via the API by setting frequency_minutes on the Create Destination (or Update Destination) request.

​
Allowed frequencies

The allowed frequencies are every 15m, 1h, 6h, 12h, or daily.
Available sync frequencies depend on your plan. Contact your Prequel representative to enable higher frequencies.

Custom orchestration

For scheduling needs beyond the standard frequencies above, you can configure custom orchestration directly in the Prequel UI. If you would like to disable automatic orchestration entirely (for example, to trigger every transfer yourself through the API), contact the Prequel team for more detail.
