# Cron Jobs

Cron jobs are generally set up to perform certain tasks for you automatically at specific time frames just as you would in a regular hosting.

To find a specific cron job in the table, use the search bar located by the aforementioned button.

The cron tab table includes:

  • Cron Expression
  • Its Description
  • Command

Under Actions you will find buttons to Edit and Delete your cron jobs.

# Adding new cron job

To add another cron job, click on the Add Cron Job button above the table.

Specify cron frequency by picking an option from the dropdown menu or fill out the cron expression. Next, enter the command you want the cron job to run.
Save by clicking on Add Cron Job button. Your new cron job will be added to the crontab of your hosting.
