Frequently Asked Questions

What is a cron expression?
A cron expression is a string of 5 (or 6) fields that defines a recurring schedule for automated tasks. It is used by Unix-like systems, cloud schedulers, and CI/CD pipelines.
What do the fields mean?
From left to right: minute (0–59), hour (0–23), day of month (1–31), month (1–12), day of week (0–7, where 0 and 7 are Sunday).
What does <code>*</code> mean?
An asterisk means "every valid value" for that field. For example, <code>* * * * *</code> runs every minute.
Does this tool run the actual jobs?
No — it only parses the expression and calculates future run times in your browser. No jobs are executed.
