Guides for using CronFox: collections, tasks, schedules, configuration, and Dead Man’s Switch.
Overview
CronFox is a hosted HTTP cron scheduler. Group jobs into collections, run them on cron expressions, inspect executions, and get notified through email and chat integrations. Dead Man’s Switch (DMS) is an optional ping after each run — not document management.
Start with the quick start, then dig into configuration and DMS when you need them. Use the sidebar to jump between guides.
