# Scheduler tasks {#scheduler}

The "workspaces" extension provides two Scheduler tasks.

-   **Workspaces auto-publication**

    This task checks if any workspace has a scheduled publishing date.
    If yes and if that date is passed, then all changes that have reached
    the "Ready to publish" stage are published to the Live workspace.

-   **Workspaces cleanup preview links**

    When [preview links](https://docs.typo3.org/permalink/typo3/cms-workspaces:users-guide-preview-link@main) are generated,
    they are stored in the database (in table "sys_preview"). This task
    will delete any link which has expired.
