Time-based Crons Scheduler

Crons is a time-based job scheduler designed to automate repetitive tasks at specified intervals, such as sending alert emails from the platform. It enables system administrators to schedule tasks efficiently, offering enhanced flexibility for tailored task scheduling. This allows for seamless self-service customization of time-based functionalities within the platform.

For example, if users want to send a specific alert at a specific time, such as noon every day, it empowers administrators to schedule these tasks independently.

Things such as content emails can be scheduled to be sent on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis, depending on the user's preferences set up on the instance. As a prerequisite, we ask clients to determine the specific times these emails should be sent. To update these settings, navigate to

System Admin

>

System Settings

>

Crons Job

(previously found under System Admin > Super Admin > Crons Job).
