> Key: AIRFLOW-3244
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-3244
> Project: Apache Airflow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: DAG
> Affects Versions: 1.10.0
> Reporter: Alberto Anceschi
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: features, request

> Hi everyone,
>
> I'm trying to port my current cronjobs into Airflow. Let's consider a real
> case scenario: I've to send every week a report and through the pipeline data
> from Google Analytics needs to be collected, so I need 2 days before running
> the DAG (data assessment). Week starts on Monday and ends on Sunday, so I
> need the DAG to run on Wednesday at Midnight UTC.
> In order to see on the Airflow dashboard start_date/exection_date that make
> sense to me, for now I've used a TimeDeltaSensor that adds that 2 day offset
> I need, but this is not its purpose. I also use Celery executor, so its
> workers keep polling during those 2 days, making them unavailable for other
> DAGs.
> I think that the assumption that at the end of the period scheduled data are
> ready is not correct and at the same time it's much more intuitive seeing on
> the dashboard Monday execution dates instead of Tuesday ones.
>
> What do you think about this request? Any suggestion? Thank you,
>
> Alberto
