Questions fréquentes
What do the 5 fields in a cron expression mean?
In order: minute (0-59), hour (0-23), day of month (1-31), month (1-12), and day of week (0-6, where 0 is Sunday, 7 is also accepted as Sunday). Each field accepts *, a single number, comma-separated lists, ranges like 1-5, and step values like */15.
What happens if both day-of-month and day-of-week are restricted?
Standard cron semantics treat this as an OR, not an AND, a job runs if the date matches either the day-of-month rule or the day-of-week rule. This tool follows that same convention when computing the next run times.
Are the next run times in my timezone?
Yes, they're computed and displayed in your browser's local timezone. If the cron job actually runs on a server in a different timezone, adjust accordingly, since standard cron schedules are evaluated against the server's local clock.
