How to set a Cron Schedule in Java

Set the Cron Schedule with the WorkflowStub instance in the Client code using WorkflowOptions.Builder.setCronSchedule.

Setting setCronSchedule changes the Workflow Execution into a Temporal Cron Job. The default timezone for a Cron is UTC.

• Type: String
• Default: None

//create Workflow stub for YourWorkflowInterface
YourWorkflowInterface workflow1 =
    YourWorker.yourclient.newWorkflowStub(
        YourWorkflowInterface.class,
        WorkflowOptions.newBuilder()
                .setWorkflowId("YourWF")
                .setTaskQueue(YourWorker.TASK_QUEUE)
                // Set Cron Schedule
                .setCronSchedule("* * * * *")
                .build());
