Can someone provide a link/info on where I can learn more about CRON Expressions? I know what they are used for and why but have never actually used them before. Thank you.

Another good, albeit possibly controversial place to learn, is ChatGPT

Heres an example: https://chat.openai.com/share/23ddc24a-6ad2-4d90-a778-4c8bdd7d598c

 

One thing to note in general about FME and Chron, is FME uses the Quartz scheduler, there are a couple of different syntaxes for Chron so make sure any references you’re following work in Quartz.

They also have a tutorial page - http://www.quartz-scheduler.org/documentation/quartz-2.3.0/tutorials/crontrigger.html
