Quick Examples

How It Works

The expression 30 9 * * * fires when the minute field equals 30 and the hour field equals 9 every day. This is useful when you need a half-hour or quarter-hour offset rather than the top of the hour.

Common Use Cases

  • 1Offsetting jobs to avoid competing with other jobs on the hour
  • 2Scheduling reminders after a morning standup
  • 3Running checks after a nightly batch window closes

Linux Crontab Example

30 9 * * * /usr/local/bin/daily-offset.sh
