    Hello Madhulika,

    No, Synchronous Web service callouts are not supported from scheduled Apex. To be able to make callouts, make an asynchronous callout by placing the callout in a method annotated with @future(callout=true) and call this method from scheduled Apex. However, if your scheduled Apex executes a batch job, callouts are supported from the batch class.

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    You need to make the callout from a @future or queueable method.

    Hope this helps.
