Using Cloud Scheduler to trigger Workflows lets you
automate recurring Dataform SQL workflows for data
transformations in BigQuery. This configuration runs your pipeline
on a defined timetable without manual intervention.

Workflows executes your Dataform workflow in a
two-step process. First, it pulls your Dataform repository code from your Git
provider and compiles it into a compilation result. Then, it uses the
compilation result to create a Dataform workflow. For more
information, see
[Schedule runs with Workflows and Cloud Scheduler](https://docs.cloud.google.com/dataform/docs/schedule-runs#workflows-cloud-scheduler).
