The interval at which the task runs. This option also determines when the task first starts to run, depending on the specified time, which must be a [duration literal](/influxdb/cloud/reference/flux/language/lexical-elements/#duration-literals).
For example, if you save or schedule a task at 2:30 and specify the task should run every hour (`1h`), the task first executes at 3:00pm, and subsequently every hour after that.
option task = {name: "aggregation", every: 1h}
_**Data type:** Duration_
```js
option task = {
// ...
every: 1h,
}
```
For example, if you save or schedule a task at 2:30 and run every hour (`1h`):
`option task = {name: "aggregation", every: 1h}`
The task first executes at 3:00pm, and subsequently every hour after that.
{{% note %}}
In the InfluxDB UI, the **Interval** field sets this option.
