    When you schedule a data source to pull once a day, it runs every 24 hours. However, the exact time of day isn't specified in our sources. You can control when the source runs by manually triggering it or setting up a custom schedule. To set up a scheduled source: 1. Click the source column's title 2. Select your source under "Sources" 3. Choose "On a schedule" under "Run this source" 4. Select "Day" as the frequency 5. Click "Update Source Schedule" If you need to update immediately, you can manually trigger the source by selecting "Update now" from the source menu.

    Hey Troy, Yes, you can schedule data sources to pull once a day, but there's no way to control the specific time it runs. It will update based on when you initially turned on the schedule. Can you let me know what your goal is here? That might help me suggest whether you can still accomplish what you need with this limitation. Here's more information about scheduled sources: https://www.clay.com/university/guide/scheduled-sources
