Do we have an option to schedule Azure IoT Edge deployments to be triggered during particular time?

Hello @Jeffrey K ,

You have to build a solution for this yourself.

You could eg. combine a timer triggered Azure Function. that checks every hour some blob storage if there is deployment manifests to be sent, with the IoT Hub Rest API

My requirement have the Edge deployment created and when users of the edge device authorize the deployment, schedule the deployment to be triggered during a particular time.

Hello @Jeffrey K ,

Yes, the most straightforward way is to first create a deployment manifest and have it stored somewhere (like the blob storage).

Plus, you need some flow where users can accept changes (in a dashboard or using logic apps).

The automatic triggering checks both sources: the available manifests and the related authorizations.
