[Create a Standard Segment in Data 360](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=data.c360_a_create_a_segment.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Create a standard segment based on a data model object and then publish the segment to activation targets."). Then, schedule it based on your needs.

## Schedule a Standard Publish

1. After entering the segment details, select **Standard Publish** for publish type.
2. For Run Mode, select **Schedule**.
3. For Frequency, select how often to publish the segment. You can publish daily, weekly, or monthly.
4. If you selected **Daily** frequency, complete these substeps:
    1. Choose 12 hours or 24 hours from the dropdown to set the interval.
    2. Enter the **Start Date** and **Start Time** to begin the schedule.
    3. Select the days of the week to run the publish.
    4. (Optional) To set an end date, select **At a time**, and enter the **End Date** and **End Time**.
5. If you selected **Weekly** frequency, complete these substeps:
    1. Enter the number of weeks to determine how often to run the publish.
    2. Enter the **Start Date** and **Start Time** to begin the schedule.
    3. Select the day of the week to run the publish.
    4. (Optional) To set an end date, select **At a time** from the **End** dropdown, and enter the **End Date** and **End Time**.
6. If you selected **Monthly** frequency, complete these substeps:
    
    1. Enter the number of months to determine how often to run the publish (up to 24 months).
    2. Choose the day of the month by selecting **On day** and entering the specific day, or select **On last day** to schedule it for the last day of the month.
    3. Enter the **Start Date** and **Start Time** to begin the schedule.
    4. (Optional) To set an end date, select **At a time**, and enter the **End Date** and **End Time**.
    
    ![Note](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-data-data_cloud-264-0-0-production-enus/f3569962-3c9b-4f83-9d0c-b6a574e785da/images/icon_note.png)
    
    Note If you select day 29, 30, or 31 for scheduling and the selected month doesn't include that day (for example, February or months with 30 days), the segment publish is skipped for that month.
7. Save the segment.

## Schedule a Rapid Publish

1. After entering the segment details, select **Rapid Publish** for publish type.
2. For Run Mode, select **Schedule**.
3. For Frequency, **Daily** is selected by default.
4. Choose **one** hour or **four** hours from the dropdown to set the interval.
5. Enter the From and To time to determine the duration within the day to run the publish.
6. Enter the **Start Date** and **Start Time** to begin the schedule.
7. Select the days of the week to run the publish.
8. (Optional) To set an end date, select **At a time**, and enter the **End Date** and **End Time**.
9. Save the segment.

Note To ensure your segment's final refresh runs, set the **End Time** to be after the calculated final refresh time. If your schedule's End Time is identical to a refresh time (for example, a 24-hour refresh ending at `T15:00Z` and an End Time of `T15:00Z`), the system prioritizes expiration, and that final refresh is skipped.

![Note](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-data-data_cloud-264-0-0-production-enus/f3569962-3c9b-4f83-9d0c-b6a574e785da/images/icon_note.png)

Note When you update the scheduled publish date and time, the **Next Publish Date Time** field isn't updated immediately on the segment record page. The value is recalculated and updated only after the next publish is complete.

You can view this schedule on the segment details page.
