APEX automations - Use session state

partlycloudyNov 9 2021 — edited Nov 9 2021

APEX 21.1
APEX automations seem like a great feature but I am struggling to understand how to utilize them in my use case. We have an app which stores user input in session state (one or more collections) and uses a stored procedure to process the data. Depending on the number of rows in the collection(s), this processing may take a very long time.
So the request is to add 3 scheduling options to the app
Execute right now
Execute at 5am next day
Execute at 5am next Saturday
Can this be done using APEX automations? In general, even though APEX automations are configured using the App Builder in the Shared Components of a specific application, I don't see any connection between the APEX application and the automation itself. You could just as well setup some automations in an empty application with zero pages?
