iOS version 17.1.1.
Tried to make shortcut automation that restarts my phone every night. Only problem is that it asks for confirmation.
Shortcuts - Automation - New automation
Personal Automation - Time od Day
When Time of Day 04:00
Repeat Daily
Run Immediately
New Blank Automation - Add Action
Scripting --> Shut Down (Restart)
Then it ask me "Are you sure you want to restart this iPhone?"
What can I do?
Press and hold on the Automation until the Edit pane comes up, then toggle off "Ask Before Running".

You’ve got all the parameters right. The problem is that it is the Shutdown action itself that requires a confirmation, not the automation.
So you won’t be able to get around this confirmation message. I guess it’s a safety feature.
Interesting- you do have 'Run Immediately' set, which is the right setting. I'm afraid I don't know why it's asking for confirmation. I would say your best bet is contacting Apple Support with an option below:
I have the same issue...it's still not fixed and I'm running iOS 17.3.
In that case, either it’s an oversight / bug in iOS 17 (that may be fixed in a future update) or it’s a new feature Apple decided to implement.
Report the issue to Apple: Product Feedback - Apple.
Is this correct place? There was this settings
Automation Run Immediately
Notify When Run (No)
When
Time of Day 0400
Repeat Daily
Run Immediately
Do: Shut Down
ios16 it worked fine. After update to ios17 it didnt work anymore.
