I would want to be able to retrieve information about automation schedule.

I see several similar requests in Ideas, and it looks like it was possible to do with FME Flow v3 API using schedules endpoint. I’ve tried 

<FME_URL>/fmeapiv4/schedules?limit=100&offset=0&includeAutomations=true

The API call didn’t fail, however it returned only schedules and no scheduled automations. The v4 API documentation doesn’t have includeAutomations param, so I am rather surprised the call didn’t fail.

The automations endpoint has nothing about triggers or schedules either.

In general, it would be helpful to be able to retrieve information about automation trigger and, if the trigger is a schedule, information about the schedule. 

One of the use cases for this would be administration of an FME Flow hosting multiple projects and used by many users/teams. Somehow, midnight seems to be the most popular choice when scheduling automations. As a result, there is a long list of automations triggered at midnight, and if one of them gets stalled… there is a surprisingly long queue with time sensitive jobs in it in the morning. If I was able to retrieve schedule info, I would create a dashboard to monitor scheduled triggers distribution
