I am unsure if this is possible or not with Xano

Options
There are some usecases I want to build to my users. I believe it require to  write some server side logic and run it as a scheduled job.
I would like to allow my users to create some schedulers on their side. For example - When X thing happens, backend has to do Y. 

X here is a user's action based event or a time based event where Y is defined based on my backend logic.

Any leads are appreciated. Thanks!

    Can you give a real world example with some more detail? That would help us give an answer.

    I can give a real world example from a social platform:

    Auto-retweet on Twitter
    Let's say I want to automate this feature to my users.

    On the backend side, I would like to right a condition where "When my tweets reaches to 100 likes, retweet those tweets automatically.

    thanks. You would do that by storing an enum or boolean on the tweet for when 100 likes happen. So likes_100: boolean

    Then create a background task that checks for tweets that are greater than or equal to 100 but have likes_100 == false.

    Retweet those and set likes_100 = true
