  3. Click the "Edit" button at the top-right
  4. The "Schedule" input box will contain the scheduling definition using a simplified version of the Cron scheduling format:

    3. Valid values are:
      1. Second: 0-59

      4. Day: 1-31

      6. Weekday: 0-6 (where 0 is Sunday, and 6 is Saturday)
      7. Year: 1000-9999
    4. Multiple values may be specified using the following formats:

      1. * : every value (e.g. every second, every minute etc.)

      2. */i : interval of i units (e.g. every 5 minutes, every 4 hours)

      3. s/i : interval of i units starting value s (e.g. every 2 hours starting 14 hours)
      4. x,y,z : list of values (e.g. on hours 11,13,15)
