Watcher always condition

Use the always condition to perform the watch actions whenever the watch is triggered, unless they are throttled.

The always condition enables you to perform watch actions on a fixed schedule, such as, "Every Friday at noon, send a status report email to sys.admin@example.com."

Using the always condition

This is the default if you omit the condition definition from a watch.

There are no attributes to specify for the always condition. To explicitly use this condition, specify the condition type and associate it with an empty object:

"condition" : {
  "always" : {}
}
