The Gaia DR3 will be based on photometric time series spanning a longer time interval and will allow the detection and characterization of about 1 million stars with magnetic activity. In the present work, we show how the Gaia data allows us to study variability phenomena connected to the stellar magnetic activity and occurs on very different timescales. We also show how the Gaia data, combined with long-term photometric surveys such as all sky automated survey (ASAS), can be exploited to detect magnetic activity cycles.STAMPAenArticle10.1002/asna.2020137322-s2.0-85086518778https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/85086518778https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/asna.2020137322020AN....341..508DFIS/05 - ASTRONOMIA E ASTROFISICAERC sectors::Physical Sciences and Engineering::PE9 Universe sciences: astro-physics/chemistry/biology; solar systems; stellar, galactic and extragalactic astronomy, planetary systems, cosmology, space science, instrumentation::PE9_6 Stars and stellar systems
