Frequently Asked Questions
Use 0 8 * * 1-5. The 1-5 in the day-of-week field means Monday (1) through Friday (5). The 0 8 means minute 0 of hour 8.
Use */10 * * * *. The */10 means "every 10 steps starting from 0", so it fires at :00, :10, :20, :30, :40, and :50 of every hour.
Standard cron doesn't directly support "last day of month". Use the L character in Quartz cron (0 0 L * ?), or use a script that checks the date inside the job itself.
Traditional Unix cron uses the server's local timezone. Tools like Kubernetes CronJobs, GitHub Actions schedules, and cloud schedulers often use UTC. Always check which timezone your cron daemon operates in.
