I have configured a Start Timer Event with recurrence set to an interval of cons

I have configured a Start Timer Event with recurrence set to an interval of constant value ( Integer = 10 minutes ).
Scheduler works fine after publishing the process model .. but when I changed my constant value from 10 minutes to 120 minutes,
the scheduler keeps in on recurring after a period of 10 minutes, whereas the constant value has been changed to 120 min.
Do I need to again publish the my scheduler process model ? ...

Try saving and publishing your process once again.

It do works when I republish the process model .. whereas I need to build configurable process scheduler timer ( via Actions) by which the constant value is updated and the updated value take the precedence and there should not be any need to re-publish the process model !
How to update the recurrence timer without re-publishing the process model ?

You need to republish the model every time you update the constant. If you are updating the constant via process model you could create a custom smart service to republish the model or use the "Republish Model as Different User Smartnode" (you could even use the same user that you have publishing the model with, the node offers the ability to select any user as the publisher though) available for download here in Appian Forum under the "Shared Components" record (

Smart Services or via direct link

You need this because when you configure the timer the model creates an image with the values at design time (10 mns in this case) to record what values it will use to launch process instances. When you update the constant at runtime the model already has an image of the original values because you configured the timer at design time, that's why republishing is necessary. This is by design but can be easily worked around by the approach described above if the update of the constant is frequent.

Thanks Eduardo ! It works ... but do we have any other way of achieving the same without using plugins.

Manually publishing the model after updating the constant would be another option without using plug-ins.
