Tool ID: cron-helper. Requested language: id. Description language: en. Complete guide translation: no; untranslated sections use English.

## Overview (en)

Cron expression helper lists the next run times of a five-field or six-field cron expression, in UTC and in an IANA time zone you choose. When the expression uses plain numbers, ranges, lists and steps, it also describes the schedule in a sentence. You can set the start date and show 1 to 100 upcoming occurrences.

## Supported tasks (en)

States the schedule in a sentence when the expression uses ordinary numbers, ranges, lists and steps, then lists the upcoming times. If both the day of the month and the weekday are restricted, a match on either day is enough.

## Steps (en)

1. Paste the source into the input editor, or load the built-in example.
2. Adjust the basic settings, then open Advanced mode for export and fine-tuning options. Custom settings stay active when the panel is closed.
3. Run cron expression helper, review the output, then use the available copy or download controls.

## Questions (en)

### How do I see the next run times of a cron expression?

Paste the expression, such as 0 9 * * 1-5, and run the tool. A table lists the upcoming times in UTC and in the selected time zone, 10 by default.

### Can I check a cron schedule in my time zone?

Yes. Enter an IANA time zone name, such as Europe/Paris or America/New_York, in the IANA time zone setting. The default is UTC.

### What if both day of month and weekday are set in cron?

When both fields are restricted, a time matches if either the day of the month or the weekday matches, so the schedule runs on both kinds of day.
