What is a Cron Job?

Cron is a time-based job scheduler in Unix-like computer operating systems. Users can schedule jobs (commands or scripts) to run periodically at fixed times.

How does this tool work?

You select the time intervals (minute, hour, day, etc.) visually, and our tool generates the standard Crontab syntax ("* * * * *") for you to paste into your server.

Generated Cron Expression

* * * * * /path/to/script.sh
