» Argument Reference

The following arguments are supported:

  • name - (Required) The name of the job.

  • region - (Required) Region where the scheduler job resides


  • description - (Optional) A human-readable description for the job. This string must not contain more than 500 characters.

  • schedule - (Optional) Describes the schedule on which the job will be executed.

  • time_zone - (Optional) Specifies the time zone to be used in interpreting schedule. The value of this field must be a time zone name from the tz database.

  • retry_config - (Optional) By default, if a job does not complete successfully, meaning that an acknowledgement is not received from the handler, then it will be retried with exponential backoff according to the settings Structure is documented below.

  • pubsub_target - (Optional) Pub/Sub target If the job providers a Pub/Sub target the cron will publish a message to the provided topic Structure is documented below.

  • app_engine_http_target - (Optional) App Engine HTTP target. If the job providers a App Engine HTTP target the cron will send a request to the service instance Structure is documented below.

  • http_target - (Optional) HTTP target. If the job providers a http_target the cron will send a request to the targeted url Structure is documented below.

  • project - (Optional) The ID of the project in which the resource belongs. If it is not provided, the provider project is used.

The retry_config block supports:

  • retry_count - (Optional) The number of attempts that the system will make to run a job using the exponential backoff procedure described by maxDoublings. Values greater than 5 and negative values are not allowed.

  • max_retry_duration - (Optional) The time limit for retrying a failed job, measured from time when an execution was first attempted. If specified with retryCount, the job will be retried until both limits are reached. A duration in seconds with up to nine fractional digits, terminated by 's'.

  • min_backoff_duration - (Optional) The minimum amount of time to wait before retrying a job after it fails. A duration in seconds with up to nine fractional digits, terminated by 's'.

  • max_backoff_duration - (Optional) The maximum amount of time to wait before retrying a job after it fails. A duration in seconds with up to nine fractional digits, terminated by 's'.

  • max_doublings - (Optional) The time between retries will double maxDoublings times. A job's retry interval starts at minBackoffDuration, then doubles maxDoublings times, then increases linearly, and finally retries retries at intervals of maxBackoffDuration up to retryCount times.

The pubsub_target block supports:

  • topic_name - (Required) The name of the Cloud Pub/Sub topic to which messages will be published when a job is delivered. The topic name must be in the same format as required by PubSub's PublishRequest.name, for example projects/PROJECT_ID/topics/TOPIC_ID.

  • data - (Optional) The message payload for PubsubMessage. Pubsub message must contain either non-empty data, or at least one attribute.

  • relative_uri - (Required) The relative URI. The relative URL must begin with "/" and must be a valid HTTP relative URL. It can contain a path, query string arguments, and # fragments. If the relative URL is empty, then the root path "/" will be used. No spaces are allowed, and the maximum length allowed is 2083 characters
