Explanation
This item checks the candidate’s knowledge of configuring Azure functions that must run on a schedule.
Azure function uses the NCRONTAB expressions to run scheduled jobs.
{second} {minute} {hour} {day} {month} {day-of-week}
The 0 0 9-17 * * * expression will ensure that the Azure function runs every hour, between 09:00 AM and 05:59 PM.
The 0 0 * 9-17 * * expression will ensure that the Azure function runs every hour, between day 9 and 17 of the month.
The * 9-17 * * * * expression will ensure that the Azure function runs every second, minutes 9 through 17 past the hour.
The 0 0 * 17 9 * expression will ensure that the Azure function runs every hour, on day 17 of the month, only in September.
