How to schedule maintenance for a Heroku Postgres database?

Issue

You are seeing the error:

There is no scheduled maintenance for this database

When trying to run maintenance on your Heroku Postgres Database

Resolution

This means there is currently no maintenance necessary for your database so Heroku has not automatically scheduled one for you based on your maintenance window.

You can create new maintenances yourself using the schedule command of the Data Maintenances CLI.
