FAQ

Questions Cron Expression Engine owners ask.

  • 01

    What cron formats are supported?

    The engine supports Unix (5-field), Quartz (6 or 7-field), AWS CloudWatch, and GitHub Actions formats.

  • 02

    How can I check if my cron expression is valid?

    You can use the validate_cron capability. Simply provide your expression and specify which format (e.g., 'unix' or 'aws') you are using.

  • 03

    Can I convert a Unix cron to AWS CloudWatch format?

    Yes, the convert_format capability is designed specifically for this. It handles the structural differences between standards while maintaining the same schedule.
