Enhanced the Run Frequency Validation for Azure Tenant Connector APIs
With this release, we have updated the run frequency validation logic for the Azure Tenant Connector Create and Update Public APIs to standardize scheduling behavior and improve consistency.
Previously, run frequency validation was based on hours, with values stored internally in minutes. This approach has been replaced with day-based validation while preserving full backward compatibility for existing API consumers.
With this update:
-
Day-based validation is enforced with supported values from 1 through 7 days.
-
Hour-based validation is removed.
-
Public APIs continue to accept run frequency input in hours and minutes with no changes to request or response structures.
-
The backend converts hours and minutes into days. Values that do not resolve to an exact whole day are rounded up to the next valid day.
-
Values that exceed the maximum supported run frequency of 7 days are rejected.
This change standardizes scheduling behavior while maintaining compatibility with existing integrations.
