Convex supports interval-based scheduling and cron expression scheduling for recurring functions. You can configure tasks to run at specific intervals or exact cron times to automate background processes reliably.

Set up a cron job in Convex by configuring your desired schedule in the `convex/crons.ts` file. You then map that schedule to an internal function, such as `internal.tasks.cleanupExpiredSessions`, to execute automatically based on the defined interval or cron expression.

Yes, Convex handles automatic retries and monitoring for scheduled serverless jobs. This ensures your background tasks, cleanup jobs, and data syncing workflows run reliably without requiring manual oversight for failure recovery.
