+## Start a CodePipeline execution
+
+Use the `CodePipelineStartPipelineExecution` target to start a new execution for a CodePipeline pipeline.
+
+The code snippet below creates an event rule with a CodePipeline pipeline as target which is
+called every hour by Event Bridge Scheduler.
+
+```ts
+import * as codepipeline from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-codepipeline';
+
+declare const pipeline: codepipeline.Pipeline;
+
+new Schedule(this, 'Schedule', {
+  schedule: ScheduleExpression.rate(Duration.minutes(60)),
+  target: new targets.CodePipelineStartPipelineExecution(pipeline),
+});
